Political analyst Mutahi Ngunyi has chimed into the debate on the LGBTQ movement, saying it will not go away.
Ngunyi said it was high time that Kenyans accepted the movement and exercised "the tolerance of choice."
"My random truth on LGBTQ+. It will not go away. And you cannot police the morality of humans," he said.
His remarks come after Noonkoir Girls Secondary School in Kajiado was closed following alleged cases of lesbianism among the students.
Some parents who spoke to the Star on Thursday, accused the school administration of going mute as their children are allegedly "beaten up" by those who wanted them to join the lesbianism club.
"Our girls have always complained to the teachers about the beatings they receive from their fellow students alleged to be in the lesbianism club. Teachers tell them that those they accuse of lesbianism have the right to education too," a parent said.
The matter escalated on Thursday forcing the principal, Florence Kimeu to send the girls home.
We were not successful in our attempts to reach Kimeu for clarification on the matter.
This comes during a time when different factions are condemning the community, including the government, religious leaders and Kenyans at large.
In February, the Supreme Court, by a majority decision, ruled that the LGBTQ community have the right to association.
The Court said the decision by the lower courts to deny the members their right to register as an NGO was discriminatory.
The judgement sparked fierce criticism from several quarters who condemned it as an attempt to domesticate and force on Kenyans uncouth Western culture.
Ngunyi said Kenyans should accept the community's presence and turn a blind eye where unaffected.
"Kenyans should climb down from their high horse of morality. We must accept it is here with us. And if it does not affect you, turn a blind eye," he said.
