World Bank to Help East African Power Crisis
Arusha, Tanzania - The World Bank is preparing funding for Tanzania and Uganda to help the east African countries cope with a power crisis triggered by a three-year drought, bank officials said on Thursday.
They were responding to an appeal for help from Juma Volter Mwapachu -- secretary-general of the East African Community, which groups Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya -- during a meeting with visiting World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz.
