    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to contribute on the Report of the Sixth Ordinary Session of the Fourth Pan-African Parliament. We have gone there twice. It is a very interactive Parliament. Kenya is one of the 52 states that attend the Pan-African Parliament. When we went there, key issues were tackled. We started with the swearing-in ceremony followed by key address by the chair of the Pan-African Parliament. We then elected members to various committees and caucuses. Kenya was lucky because Hon. Janet Ong’era was elected as the Chairperson of the Eastern Caucus. The rest of us were also elected to various committees. We thank both Houses: National Assembly and the Senate. We are five Members: three from the National Assembly and two from the Senate. We were elected to represent different committees. I was privileged to chair the committee on transport. Hon. Janet Ong’era was elected to be the Chairperson of the Eastern Caucus and also Chairperson of the Gender Committee. We had plenary sessions too. On most occasions, we were taken through the procedures of the House. The Pan-African Parliament is very active and is represented by 52 member states. I would like Members who have read the Report to contribute. It was moved last week by Hon. Janet Ong’era and seconded by Hon. Eve Obara. I expect Members to have gone through the Report so that they can contribute. I support the Report."
