[Independent (Kampala)] Comment -- In 2007, President Yoweri Museveni made a bold decision to deploy UPDF members to then-troubled Somalia. This followed the formation of the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) of Somalia in Nairobi, Kenya, between October and November 2004, after nearly two years of peace talks mediated by the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD). At the time, the TFG was operating out of Kenya's capital, Nairobi.
