A section of male sex workers in Thika have lauded the move by US President Barrack Obama to tour Kenya saying they are sure he will support their recognition.
The group said that they should be respected and their sex rights recognised as homosexuality is natural.
Through their spokesman Barrack Ondieki, the group said that Kenyans are just politicising Obama’s visit and that he should be given space to speak about anything he wishes as no one has forced him to come to Kenya.
In an interview with one of the radio stations, Ondieki said that he is not one of them but has recognised the need to protect and respect each and every Kenyan with a different character from the rest as they are all God’s creation.
“We are talking of recognition of their orientation and giving them better living environment in the society. If they don’t involve anyone of us, then we should let them live their lives and we coexist peacefully. There is no need of spending your time opposing what you don’t do,” Ondieki said.
He added that those planning to demonstrate are just being childish as they are not helping anyone change their orientation.
“If you think you can help them change, then go ahead but not by demonstrating without clothes around. Kenyans should learn to mind their own business,” he added.
