I thought the hon. Member who raised the issue would have felt the same way. This is a problem in our country. If you talk to experts, you will know there are a lot of problems. Just last week, a student committed suicide here in Kiambu. Nine years ago, a child died out of depression in the same school because of being raped by fellow female pupils. Therefore, we have a problem and I think the Government needs to stop being casual on this issue. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I know of a study that was done in Kisumu Town alone, and it put the number of gay activity so high that the Government must crack down on this ungodly activity."}
