Kenya Navy restricts Binyavanga Wainaina’s boyfriend from travelling to Germany to meet his gay sweetheart

Gay author, Binyavanga Wainaina, is shedding tears after Kenya Navy restricted his boyfriend from meeting him.

Binyavanga Wainaina has been in Germany for more than five months; he travelled there to seek medical help following a complication he had back here in Kenya.

The prolonged stay in Europe has made Binyavanga feel lonely and in need for a loved one to offer comfort and pleasure.

The renowned author took to the social media to protest after his attempts to have his boyfriend travel to Germany to meet him were thwarted by the Kenya Navy.

He says he was forced to change his plan of meeting his boyfriend in Germany since Kenya Navy ‘forbids’ its staff from travelling to Europe.

Binyavanga’s second option of taking his sweetheart to South Africa is also in a limbo because he thinks Kwani Trust Board will fail to release funds to finance the trip.

“i am crying. I dont know what to do. I think the Board at Kwani is going to say no to me taking my – in-love to South Africa for a holiday using my Medical Fund. i have been in love with this man for five years. we have spent five days together. IN THE Past year. Even his post is dangerous for him. He is in the navy. He is very stressed. He was in Somalia. HE was supposed to travel and meet me in Germany this December. My fellowship DAAD was going to sponsor him. Unfortunately the navy does not allow people so low, to come to Europe. So i had the idea to take him to South Africa for a month. He needs me. That I have to come to social media is because i think they Board ARE being very cruel.” Wrote Binyavanga.
