Why Kenya may Lose sh 4.2 Trillion Over Anti-LGBTQ Law

Chrispen

Tuesday, October 10, 2023 –One of the preconditions to Kenya for the sh 4.2 trillion development funds is to support LGBTQ community.

Economists led by Lawyer Fred Ogola have explained why it is taking too long for some African nations to ban same sex relationship and culture.

In his interview with a local channel today Tuesday October 10, Ogola disclosed that the United States of America U.S.A as well as European Nations EU donate a whopping sh 4.2 trillion to every country as long as it meets certain conditions.

Conditions given to African Countries

Among these pre-conditions, is supporting and allowing same sex relationships to thrive in their respective countries.

The Western countries argue that discrimination against members who feel they love one another or want to get married to same sex is against standards of world culture.

“Kenya depends a lot on foreign donors, especially the EU and USA. These donors have given pre-conditions for their continuous support, and one of their conditions – unfortunately, – is support for the LQBTQ which is presented as equal protection and non- discrimination of each individual irrespective of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender, etc…” Ogola said.

Banning or attempting to interfere with the requirement has seen the developed countries also withhold the donations.

“Violating any of these conditions may lead to withholding of financial support. Therefore, if the bill is signed into law, Kenya must be ready to lose around sh4.186 trillion,” Ogola warned.

Ogolla also added that beneficiaries of this monies include other arms of government like the Judiciary and Parliament to an extension.

This is deliberately done to tie their hands against trying to interfere with the Western countries culture that seems to infiltrate African countries.

Family Protection Bill

The Bill drawn by Homa Bay Town Member of Parliament Peter Kaluma christened Family Protection Bill will, therefore, be detrimental to Kenya should it sail through to the President’s desk.

Experts say Kenya risks losing financial development aid of about sh 4.2 trillion from the United States and European Nations if the anti-LGBTQ bill is enacted.

Kaluma’s bill, which was recently cleared at the Supreme Court, seeks to criminalize homosexuality and same-sex marriages. If passed into law, it will criminalize the promotion, recruitment, and funding of homosexuality and LGBTQ within the Kenyan borders.

But expert and lawyer Ogola say President Ruto should sign this bill into law only if he has a concrete plan of where he is going to get the sh 4.186 trillion thios country gets in grants.

In the neighboring Uganda, a similar Bill was recently passed in Parliament and quickly signed into law by President Yoweri Museveni. The law comes with severe punishment.
