    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support the Committee Report because these treaties are long overdue as said by the Hon. Member. When we do the ratification, it is going to cement our relationship with our member countries and also assist in the employment of our youth. Our membership and support in the EAC will help our youth to travel and move around easily. The mutual defence pact between the Republic of Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda will help us to become one nation. Our movements will be eased and our businesses will thrive. The agreement establishing the Eastern Africa Standby Force is important because we are affected by insecurity issues. We should bear in mind that we are a nation facing issues of insecurity in our counties and sub-counties. In the places where there is insecurity, they have not developed even after 52 years of Independence. They are still struggling with insecurity. I want to support the Committee and ask all the Members of Parliament to support and hasten it so that it can enrich our goal towards attaining Vision 2030."
