"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support this Report. We examined it based on how the Chair has moved it. If you look at PAP, I believe we, as Africans, had desires at that time to go back to what our fathers started in terms of pan-africanism. The PAP was supposed to help us intervene, in terms of protecting the rights of the African member states, deepening our relationships and bringing relevance in terms of the many struggles that we have, especially poverty. Look at PAP, AU and the things that are happening now. First of all, we just need to look at the wealth of the African continent. I hope that Members who go to PAP can critique and look at the key issues that affect Africa and their different member states. We believed that we would have economic growth. This is the Parliament that came in when we looked at the European Parliament, and we felt that interregional relations would be there. As we talk of the robust 2063 where we are talking about the African economies, growth, development and leading in transformation, I believe it should start now. This Parliament is supposed to look at the heads of member states and question some of the issues that are happening. If we want to see Africa’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) go up, we have to work on our agriculture, tourism, the blue economy, and effects of climate change."
