    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is the issue of radicalization having been caused or there is a feeling that this radicalization has come up because some people are agitated about the political situation. They feel marginalized by the politics of the day and they feel that they can radically do certain things. I am praying that this Building BridgesInitiative, the Peace Initiative that is coming to this country will come to bring up a balanced society that does not have to make people feel marginalized in any way, to an extent that they want to think of radical measures to handle the situation. When you push a dog right to the corner, however cowardly it may be, at one point, it will fight back. There is a time in this society that people have come to an extent of feeling they are so desperate and that they have been pushed so far until they cannot be pushed anymore. We should look forward to this Building Bridges Initiative . We look forward to a better Kenya where nobody is marginalized either because of their few numbers or religion or anything else. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, many areas have been marginalized when it comes to development. When we were approaching the last general election, we said that some of us are not Kenyans anymore because we cannot stand any more oppression. This is the kind of feeling that we should stop and people must put aside, build these bridges and have an initiative that brings Kenya together. Therefore, we will have a peaceful Kenya; a Kenya where people will not feel they would be better joining terrorism to revenge or join any other revenge mission and be proudly Kenyans. I support."
