"content": "I also want to add my voice on the East African Community. There is immense opportunity for this country. We needed to reposition ourselves. The Ministry concerned should be dialoguing with the business people in this country, so that they can take advantage. We are moving further. We know that the East African Community is one of the building blocks to form the African Union. We, as a continent, need to be cohesive. We need to take a common approach in facing the rest of the world. If Europe is transforming itself into one market, if Asia is doing the same, what is it that is in Africa? It is our small nations that are pulling us back from forming a united front. We must support the Common Market Protocol and unification of Africa, so that we attack all these issues from a common front. This agenda must flow down. I know in Addis Ababa, the Heads of State sign a lot of protocols which are not brought to this House. I urge the Minister for Foreign Affairs to table those protocols, so that Members of Parliament and the nation are aware of efforts to unify the continent."
