    "content": " A Dutch Foundation working to support social change and Taidys Foundation, an American firm that seeks to promote robust democratic processes, a key stakeholder in the LGBTQI agenda in Kenya; THAT, the European Court on Human Rights while interpreting the European Convention on Human Rights has ruled that gay marriage is not a human right noting that only 10 out of 47 European countries allow such same sex marriages; THAT, the USA Supreme Court declined to state that the same sex marriages is a right under the Constitution or international law but instead ruled that individual states may decide whether or not to allow the said marriages; THAT, it is thus questionable that organizations from those countries are channeling funds for the promotion of the agenda in Kenya; THAT, there has not been sufficient information and details as to exactly how much funding have been directed to the LGBTQI agenda in Kenya; THAT, if the situation is not investigated, then the State will stand in contravention of the Constitution which guarantees protection of the family and prevention of practices that are detrimental to the society; THAT, the matters presented in this Petition are not pending before any court of law or independent body; THEREFORE, your humble Petitioner prays that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs: (i) inquires into all the matters raised in this Petition pursuant to Standing Order No.216(5); (ii) inquires from the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the NGOs Coordination Board on the status and annual funding of LGBTQI in Kenya; (iii) inquires from the Inter-Religious Council of Kenya on their views regarding the LGBTQI agenda; and, (iv) make any order or direction that it deems fit in the circumstances of the matter. And your Petitioners will ever pray."
