The move to East Africa is pretty similar to what I usually do.
I tend to use the transport to pick up the tank and an infantry from Alexandria; you can also send in the mech from Egypt and infantry from Sudan, with the tac to get the boost from the tank.
This leaves the tank and the mech 2 spaces from Egypt – the problem is that Egypt is way too weak in the beginning, so pulling units out to deal with East Africa is a losing idea, it seems.
