On today's edition of The Discourse, we turn our attention to Midrand, in South Africa, where the legislative heart of the continent is beating with renewed purpose. The Pan-African Parliament (PAP) is currently convened for a high-stakes Extraordinary Session to elect its new Bureau leadership. This session follows the conclusion of the Sixth Bureau's mandate and aims to restore full parliamentary functionality through a transparent, rules-based election of a President and four Vice-Presidents based on regional rotation. At a time when calls for stronger accountability, unity, and legislative impact are growing louder, the outcome of this session matters far beyond Midrand. What kind of leadership is needed, and what's at stake for ordinary Africans? Joining us now to unpack the significance of these elections, the regional dynamics at play, and what this means for the 'Africa We Want,' Tsepiso Makwetla spoke to Nairobi-based Political Analyst, Hassan Kulundu
