Sam West, a motivational speaker, has proposed a solution that he believes would help overturn the recent Supreme Court verdict that allowed the LGBTQ group to register their organization, as the discussion around the LGBTQ community continues to dominate all social media platforms.

Sam West requests one million Kenyans' signatures to counter the LGBTQ movement. His fans indicated their desire to help when he posted this on his Facebook page.

The motivational speaker insisted the LGBTQ agenda should not be allowed in society. He urged those against LGBTQ not to be afraid because of threats. He went ahead to quote Matthew 10:26 "But don't be afraid of those who threaten you. For the time is coming when everything that is covered will be revealed, and all that is secret will be made known to all."


Church leaders around the nation also reacted angrily to the highest court ruling. Several church leaders requested a news conference to denounce and criticize the supreme court's ruling. Nonetheless, LGBTQ advocates, including media star Makena Njeri, reacted joyfully to the news. A brief video clip of activist Makena explaining to Bien why they stopped attending church was revived. Here, Makena claimed that they began to feel uncomfortable in the church as soon as they came out as members of the LGBTQ community. They criticized the church for treating community members unfairly and said God did not discriminate.

To a large extent, discussions about sexuality, particularly those involving the LGBTQ population, have been frowned upon. Most Kenyans are very religious, and Gayism is against the law, so the government has not been eager to address their concerns.
