    "content": "It has been a great experience serving in this Committee. I normally say in these forums: “Africa is ours and it is our business”. It is really good seeing African countries coming together to try and resolve issues from their own experience and resources. We should work with what we have and we make our countries the best. The DRC has joined the economic bloc of the East African Nations and therefore, it is in our interest as Kenya to see that there is a lot of peace in the DRC. We want to see the DRC progress and opening up even more. As it is good for their citizens, it is good for us as well, as a region and a community. It is beautiful to see Africans working together for the betterment of our nations. I want to further emphasize the role of parliaments because this was the theme for this year. This came out very clearly from all the committee resolutions that were done in this season. Without a doubt Parliament has such a key role to play in conflict resolution. We have duty as national leaders to promote peace at all times. We cannot understate this especially at a time like this when we are in the electioneering period."
