KOT Debates Sexual Consent Age Reduction Plans
Kenyans on Twitter have taken to the social media platform, debating on whether the proposal by Court of Appeal to have sexual consent age reduced from 18 to 16 years, should be implemented or not. Varying opinions on the plans have roamed the Twitter streets, with most tweeps opposing the idea. Here are some of the reactions;No matter how many people engage in sex below age 18, it doesn't qualify 16, by law they are still children. Unless article 260 be amended— ken isah akani (@ken_isah) July 19, 2019

We are losing the bigger debate on #SexConsentAgeKE because people are being subjective about it. "This is the problem with any debate about AoC. For some people, it's all about "stop the paedophiles", which has nothing to do with it."

My favorite thing about the #Cats trailer is that it didn't awaken anything (new) in me, sexually. So. Phew.
