Kenya Films Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua has banned Disney channel’s American comedy-drama television series Andi Mack from airing in Kenya.
Mutua claimed that the show has in the recent episodes introduced a gay storyline and that none of this will be aired in Kenya.
The new story has a 13-year-old character Cyrus Goodman declaring openly his love for another boy.
“When it comes to protecting children from exposure to bad content we are resolute and unapologetic. Gay content will not air in Kenya, period,” he posted.
“The institution of family is sacrosanct. It’s the basic unit of society and it’s derived from a union between a man and a woman. Any other doctrine, teaching or information is a heresy and a travesty,” he added.
