Speaking yesterday in Ndimu, Molo during the burial ceremony of Chomba Wahome, a community leader, they said that the court's ruling was unreligious, un-African and could bring a 'curse' to the country.

The religious leaders led by Samuel Kamuri Muya, the General Overseer of Talents Revival Churches said that all Kenyans from across the religious divide must come out and say no to the ruling.

"It is the high time that we who fear God come out strongly to reject and condemn the ruling before we entrench this iniquity in our culture. We request the President not to allow this country to be steered towards that direction," said Muya.

Apostle Joseph Mwangi of Full Gospel Churches of Kenya has asked the court to rescind the decision terming it ungodly.

"We cannot accept rulings that are unnatural and that goes against the tenets of creation. God created Adam and Eve and He was right in doing so," said Mwangi.

The ruling was made by Justices Mumbi Ngugi, George Odunga and Isaac Lenaola on Monday.

Soon after, four MPs asked Attorney General Githu Muigai and the Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) board to appeal the High Court ruling.

The four who included Irungu Kang'ata (Kiharu), Abdulswamad Nassir (Mvita) minority leader Francis Nyenze (Kitui West) and minority whip Thomas Mwadeghu (Wundanyi) faulted the court ruling and urged Christians, Muslims and Hindus to condemn the move.

The ruling may become a platform for those calling on the constitution to be changed. Kenya is known as a highly intolerant nation when it comes to homosexuality which is seen to go against beliefs.
