He also said the country will not embrace LGBTQ.

Ole Sapit said the church has a mission to change the perception that the country is ready for LGTBQ.

"We have our cultures and norms to safeguard," he said.

Meanwhile, the Kisii County Assembly took time to debate the legalisation of LGBTQ groups in the country.

Nominated MCA Damaris Nyanchoka called for engagement in public forums to end the vice.

"It is no longer a secret that we have our young boys and girls joining the groups. They even dress in a specific code known to themselves so that they can easily identify each other on the streets," said Nyanchoka.

Masige West MCA Michael Motome said African cultures do not allow for LGTBQ.

"We need to organise various cultural activities to sensitise our people against such behaviours," he said.

Assembly Speaker Philip Nyanumba said the House will not entertain any push aimed at legalising LGTBQ.

"We are a country and community guided by morals and norms," he said.
