    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we need to change the frame of mind of the Kenyan people. We have the potential to grow this country to the heights it wishes to grow. If you travel from Nairobi all the way to Mandera, it is a shame that after Garissa we do not have a tarmac road. It is a mindset that has informed subsequent governments that this place called the northern part of Kenya, there is nothing, except problems. I am glad that this House is able to understand that every inch of Kenya is as important as every other part of this country. We have established the Truth Justice and Reconciliation Commission (TJRC) in order for the truth to be said. We will never support insurgence of any form. The Act targeted even ordinary Kenyans who were doing their daily businesses. It gave a blank cheque to our security officers to do anything they wished, even to an ordinary person who was loyal to the country. There were killings, maiming and raping. That very Kenyan had no recourse to law and yet the Constitution protects him."
