    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion on the adoption of the Report of the Fifth Session of the Pan-African Parliament. It is important that as a country, we participate in areas that will influence issues of radicalisation, land use and e-Government that have been raised in this Report. Africa is now the new frontier for the whole world. It is the region where everybody is looking towards. It is important we get a legislative framework where if, as a country we are not able to resolve some issues internally, we can then go to the African Union for adjudication. The African Union has adjudicated on issues of security and in situations when countries are at war. We can take a look at the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD) within Africa as an example. The main challenges which have emerged in Africa at the moment are radicalization and terrorism. It is important that we get a common united front where we will get adjudication in an institution where we have legislative representation."
