-
The East African Community is built on a spirit of brotherhood, shared goals, and joint infrastructure, but lately, the biggest source of regional tension isn't a trade dispute it's a viral video. A recent, highly-charged statement by Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni regarding access to the Indian Ocean has been widely misinterpreted and the resulting chaos has found its perfect volatile home in TikTok.

They are the indisciplined, the chaotic, the delightfully or frustratingly disorganised. And when they inevitably mess up, the impulse is to sigh, scold or even distance ourselves. But what if, instead of constantly trying to fix or judge them, we chose a different path? What if we practiced the unexpected strength of defending the indisciplined people we care about? Understanding the Spectrum of "Indiscipline" The word "indiscipline" often carries a harsh, moralistic weight, suggesting a lack of character or a deliberate choice to be difficult.
