Media personality and influencer Anita Nderu has slammed Kenyans over what she said were double standards when it comes to matters impacting our society. In a series of posts shared on Instagram, the former TV host expressed disappointment at Kenyans who are always the first ones to say malicious, objectionable, and defamatory things about the LGBT community in the country yet they remain mum when other social injustices take place.

“I will never understand how Kenyans turn a blind eye to economy, shattering corruption and debt, social injustices, celebrate in cults like fashion murderers and thieves both in and out of office, vote into power politicians with characters and agendas, accept inequality in access to jobs, good education, housing, healthcare, their rights as tax-paying citizens and infrastructure. Then draw the moral law, rights, religion and culture line the second the LGBTQ+ community is mentioned,” she wrote.
