Ahmednasir clash with MP Peter Kaluma over LGBTQ+ in Kenya calling on the lawmaker to concentrate on his constituency.
Peter Kaluma, a member of parliament from Homa Bay Town, and lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi have different opinions on the contentious LGBTQ+ issue in the country.
Lawyer Ahmednasir appeared to ask the MP to mind his own business and deliver to his voters as Kaluma expressed his opposition to the practice.
The war of words started when Kaluma shared and criticized sentiments attributed to United States ambassador to Kenya Meg Whitman, saying the US should not impose its policies on Kenyans as the Kenyan law criminalizes LGBTQ+.
“Over the past week, my team and I met with the LGBTQI+ community & stakeholders to support the human rights of LGBTQI+ persons. The U.S. proudly advances efforts to protect LGBTQI+ persons from discrimination & violence and will continue to stand up for human rights & equality,” Whitman tweeted.
Kaluma responded: “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights talks about the rights of all human persons; men and women. Kenyans will not accept that perverted “sexual orientation” nonsense you’re pushing in Kenya!”

However, Ahmednasir told off the MP, saying he has more pressing issues for the people of Homa Bay Town.
“Hon Kaluma. You are an MP in Homa Bay. Concentrate on your constituency. The Hon Ambassador is rightly articulating Washington’s policy on the subject. Your vile obsession with the LBGTQ community isn’t wealthy. Hi ni mambo ya Mungu…Btw a person and his God…Wachana!” the lawyer said.
The LGBTQ+ topic has been a hot issue in the country, with political leaders and religious leaders coming out to condemn the ruling by the Supreme Court.
