When US president Donald Trump came to power two years ago, he announced drastic cuts by his country to major United Nations bodies and other Non-Governmental Organizations that funded hundreds of projects across the globe supporting millions of people.

The cuts impacted many projects which America funded including in the health sector as well as in other sectors.

The impact of those cuts has finally reached our shores and the first victim is the peacekeeping mission in Somalia which has been running since 2011.

Last Friday, the African Union (AU) rattled by Trump’s announcement convened its Peace and Security Council bringing together military and defense advisers from member states.
