    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Report. This is one of the reports that has, unfortunately, stayed for quite a while listed on our Order Paper. I have taken time to interact with Members of this House who are Members of PAP. My good friend, Sen. (Dr.) Ali, speaks with a lot of confidence about the things they discuss at this temple of Africa, as it is referred to in the document. This is the place where Africa meets, speaks about its problems and tries to find ways of seeking solutions to the challenges that continue to bedevil our continent. I support this Report because I have taken time to read through the resolutions especially of the last Extra-Ordinary Session that they had and the kind of discussions they had as a Parliament. It is my sincere wish, though, that over time each of the 52 African States can ratify the recommendations and also the existence of PAP as a proper parliament whose resolutions, the entire continent is bound by. The African Union (AU) is more of an elite club where African presidents and their foreign Ministers meet occasionally, maybe once, twice or thrice a year. They exchange pleasantries and speak about challenges here and there. However, we have never seen far reaching resolutions of the AU, where at a peer to peer level, African presidents can challenge each other and say: “What you are doing in your country is not right or what you are doing to a certain group of people in your country is not the right"
