The government should not use taxpayers money to count gay people in the country as this amounts to recognising their existence, says the Council of Imams and preachers of Kenya.

Nominated MP Mohamed Dor said the plan to spend Sh40 million was wrong and as gayness is contrary to the constitution order.

The CIPK secretary general criticised non-governmental organisations using the HIV/Aids pandemic to propagate the gay issue in the country.
