Is an American religious group pushing the anti-LGBT agenda?
We hear from Peter Kaluma, the Kenyan MP sponsoring anti-gay legislation. He was one of a number of African MPs who attended a conference sponsored by a US Mormon pressure group.
Across Africa there are moves afoot to toughen laws against the gay community.
In May, President Yoweri Museveni signed the Anti-Homosexuality Bill 鈥� giving Uganda some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ laws in the world.
But now Ghana鈥檚 and Kenya鈥檚 parliaments are due to soon start debating even tougher legislation.

One of them was the MP behind the Kenyan bill, George Peter Kaluma.
The 麻豆社鈥檚 Catherine Byaruhanga spoke to him.
