    "content": "I am sorry, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to the Motion in relation to the Report relating to PAP. It is impressive to see that there are plans to make it like the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) which we have. Now that we have an African Court of Justice, it is only fair that we have a legislative site of Africa. That is where matters relating to Africa can be checked, debated and legislation can then be implemented by the African Court of Justice passed. There are many similarities of issues in Africa. Such issues are of youth, gender and terrorism. They cut across in all parts of Africa. It will be good when we have a fair and collective standard of dealing with it because if the trend goes on as it is it today, it divides Africa especially into religious conflicts where Christians and Muslims and maybe other religions find themselves in conflict. With a place where people from all these nations can come to debate, it is going to be very good in bringing the African people together. We will be able to nominate Members here in Kenya who will represent us and share out ideas. Whatever the experiences we have in Kenya will be shared in other countries and we will build Africa in terms of the software of an African thinking because the hardware is already there. We will able to think together and analyse matters in a similar way so that the African continent which has been underdeveloped gets developed. That way, our people will not be running away to Europe or other parts of the world hoping for better living conditions.
