Hired prostitutes to be used in naked anti-gay demo

About 3,600 people have reportedly registered to participate in the planned nude protest against US President Barack Obama.

The organisers of the demo, Republican Liberty party leader Vincent Kidala, said the demonstration against same-sex relationship seeks to show Mr Obama the differences between a man and a woman.

But by his own admission, the movement is likely to parade paid-up commercial sex workers in the demo as it appears it may not get the numbers from the ordinary straight population.

“In fact our party has a network of prostitutes in Nairobi, Nakuru and other counties. This is where we shall get all these people,” he told the Star. “We expect 1,000 women and 4,000 men but we will be happy if the number increases.”

Mr Kidala so far they have registered at least 100 people per county and they are receiving “massive pledges”. Mr Kidala, who will lead the peaceful march beginning 10 am at the Freedom Corner, said he has held a planning meeting with commercial sex workers.

He praised President Uhuru Kenyatta for saying gay rights is a “non-issue” that will not feature in talks with Obama. “Obama should know that gay rights is Western. When in Africa he should value our rights,” he said.

On July 14, the party sought permission to hold the nude protest after the US Supreme Court legalised gay marriage in all 50 states.  “The procession shall be carried out by approximately 5,000 totally naked men and women to protest over Obama’s open and aggressive support for homosexuality,” Mr Kidala said.

Several Kenyan leaders have asked Mr Obama to avoid gay talk during his visit, but the White House downplayed the demands, saying he will not shy away from the topic.
