Later on this year to curb HIV/AIDS and I'm hoping to be back home so that I can be counted. Some worry about their identity and say they'll come out to be counted if the names are anonymous. There've been worries on who's handling the data, and the fact that it's illegal in Kenya therefore it could be a trap to identify the homosexuals and jail them. The government claims no politician will have access to the info even though being gay is against the law. There are also worries of how the census will be carried out ie will they get the correct figures, will gays identify themselves wherever they're hiding, and if the figures are incorrect and low religious fanatics will use it as "evidence" that being gay is a "choice". There's irony to it cause it's still illegal and many gays are denied healthcare. Kenya has alot more to worry about too. What are your thoughts?
Kenya is planning to carry out a census to establish how many homosexuals are there?
