"content": "We cannot be left behind. If you run through this document, 43 African countries have so far already ratified the establishment of AFC. We cannot be left out as a country. Kenya is a very progressive country in Africa that is known for its development and, therefore, there is absolutely no reason why we should be left behind. My only issue is that the second-to-last paragraph on page two of the document indicates that Kenya's AFC membership was ratified by the Cabinet on 7th April 2017. That should be expunged from the record because the Cabinet does not ratify such instruments. The National Assembly is mandated by the Constitution and other laws to ratify such agreements. The Cabinet approves such instruments and then Parliament ratifies them."
