“Masturbation in the showers and the bathroom stalls is a violation of the Kenyatta University Housing Code,” goes the first part of a notice from the Kenyatta University accommodation office. As a point of emphasis, the notice further states: “Our drains are not built to withstand semen.” The students are not however, left without an option as the notice clearly indicates: “Please, masturbate in your bedroom. And just in case you have a question regarding the enforcement of the masturbation policy, feel free to direct your concerns to the housekeeper.”
The university gives sufficient reason for the enforcement of this policy: “Every year, Kenyatta University spends thousands of money in maintenance because of excessive amounts of semen stuck in the pipes. The repair costs will be directly reflected in your fees requirement next academic year. The cost cannot be charged to the university’s finance office as the repair is done through independent contractors, not KU personnel.”
