Ahmednasir Abdullahi has criticized President William Ruto over the absence of LGBTQ members in his government.
Abdullahi compared the lack of LGBTQ members in Ruto’s cabinet with the presence of five in President Uhuru Kenyatta’s administration and more than 12 LGBTQ senior staff members in the State House and Office of the President.
“H.E William Ruto must be called out for excluding members of the LBGTQ from his govt. Contrast this with Uhuru’s commendable policy. Uhuru’s cabinet had 5 LBGTQ members & over 12 senior staff in State House/Office of the President. President Ruto has Zero! YES ZERO!,” Ahmednasir tweeted.
Ruto previously told CNN that he respects everyone’s right to maintain their own opinions and that this also goes for people who hold different ideas.
“We have Kenyan law, we have Kenyan constitution, we have our tradition, customs; we will continue to respect other people’s customs as they respect our customs and traditions,” the president said.
