This question is incorrect. Electricity is defined as the accumulation/ movement of electrons. The reason that electrons move is the same reason gravity exisits. They are just natural phenomena. There is no electric force that makes electrons move. It is the attractive/ repulsive forces between the protons and electrons. There is no such defined force you are asking about. The closest unit to answer this question is the Coloumb.
