Bien Aime Baraza, the main singer of Sauti Sol, has made it clear where he stands on the Supreme Court’s recent decision enabling LGBTQ+ people to establish associations. President William Ruto has said that he will not permit the country to move in that direction by legalizing same-sex weddings.I support! – Sauti Sol’s Bien speaks after Ruto’s assurance over ruling on LGBTQ+ associations | Pulselive Kenya
The musician spoke out in favor of the LGBTI+ community in Kenya, saying that he is a big supporter of the group and that the general public has no right prying into other people’s private lives. Bien said that the LGBTQ+ debate is keeping Kenyans from focusing on the genuine problems that are hurting their lives, such corruption, in an interview with TV47 from London.
“Mi nasupport LGBTQ sana. Mi nasupport watu kufanya kenye wanataka expression yao. Hio Kenya shida zetu ni njaa, shida zetu ni economic empowerment, shida zetu ni proper education in our schools… There are so many problems that come before this LGBTQ issue lakini I feel like the government is using this to hoodwink you guys and to remove your attention from the things that actually matter.” Bien explained.
The Supreme Court declared on Friday, February 24, that it was discriminatory to restrict LGBTQ+ people the ability to register as an Organization. The NGOs Co-ordination Board was criticized by the judges for refusing to register four names for an LGBTQ+ organization on the basis that same-sex marriage is prohibited in Kenya in their ruling.
