As the investigations around the murder of Sheila Lumumba continue, we call upon the DCI KENYA to act with swiftness and surety to bring the perpetrators to justice. Further, we demand duty bearers be vocal and condemn violence against LGBTIQ+ persons. We also ask that the Kenyan Society understands that violence against LGBTIQ+ people is unacceptable and is punishable by Law.
We stand with Sheila’s Family and the LGBTIQ+ community in this difficult time.
