On the other hand, those that are for same sex marriages see it as their constitutional and legal right.

In the midst of all these confusion a mega ruling on the legalization of the same sex relations in Kenya is expected tomorrow, Friday.

Members of the gay community and the petitioners who will be in court have now asked that the state provides them with security.

 The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) wrote a letter to the Nairobi Police Commander to provide security at Milimani Law Courts.

It said because of the emotive nature of the case and the expected high public interest in the outcome of the case, the police should enhance security within the court precincts for the petitioners and members.

The commission also asked the police to ensure that there is no breach of law and order following the ruling that will be delivered by the three-judge bench.
