    "content": "This Protocol is one of those that the East African countries have been trying to ratify since the breakup of the East Africa Community many years back. We have been trying to bring our East African brothers together and it has taken a while. All in all, things are moving well. Already, we have succeeded to come up with the Customs Protocol which is already in place. We are now dealing with the issue of the jurisdiction on the East African Court of Justice. There is also the Monetary Protocol which is taking time to be finalized. Having been a Member of the Committee on Regional Integration, I am aware that there are efforts towards finalizing the Monetary Protocol. However, because of the fluctuation and differences in currencies and, maybe, some of our neighbours being jittery about our strength, especially as far as our shilling is concerned, that one has not been concluded. I am happy that the matter on the East African Court of Justice is here with us. We are going to approve it because the onus of ratifying it is bestowed on this august House.
