"content": "Finally, in 1969 or thereabouts, Pope Paul VI released an encyclical where he said, the new name of peace is development. You will also realize that these enterprises are happening in largely marginalized areas of this country. We, as a State, must invest in these areas. We must build roads and schools. I support what Sen. Mandago has said. There should be no harambee or self-help when it comes to matters of security. This idea of police reservists is asking a community to engage in harambee or to raise arms to protect itself. The Kenyan State must take over rather than just applying the boots or killing every bandit that comes out of the marginalized areas. The Kenyan State must drain the swamp from which this people hatch plans to come to attack us. In order to drain that swamp, let us develop the area. We shall not be able to kill every bandit or terrorist who happens upon us. Let us drain the swamp and have a martial plan for these areas; to open and modernize them up and try and bring them within the Kenyan economy where everybody else is striving."
