Kenya minister wants gay students to be day scholars

Kenya's education minister says gay students infringing on the rights of other learners should not be allowed to attend boarding schools.

Prof George Magoha advised instead that the gay students "moving from one bed to another" should be admitted to day schools.

He said that while he had nothing against gay students, having them in day schools would allow closer supervision by their parents.

It comes after a male student was reportedly sodomised at a boarding high school in the capital Nairobi.
