Speaking from London on Thursday, Raila said that Kenyans should be allowed to watch anything they want including lesbian movies. 

This comes after KFCB chief executive Ezekiel Mutua banned the film on the grounds that it is against the morals of the African society. The film has, however, received ovation from fans across the world.  

“People should be allowed freedom of expression, as well as the freedom to watch what they like. @RailaOdinga on the 'Rafiki' film ban. @wanuri @KuisanMacharia #shapingafricanconversations @GinaDinGroup,” tweeted The Founder Gina Din Group and UNFPA Ambassador Red Cross Gina Din after Raila’s speech in London.
