Cynthia Waggah, a woman who left Kenya to seek refuge in the United Kingdom, has expressed frustration, claiming life as an asylum seeker is not a bed of roses.
Waggah, a former Interior Ministry official, recently told the BBC that she fled Kenya because she believed her life was at risk due to her sexuality.
Cynthia travelled to the UK in 2022 to seek asylum, fearing arrest and the loss of her children, as the Kenyan Constitution does not permit homosexuality.
According to her, despite being granted the right to live in a European country, life has not been easy due to the pressure of feeling unwanted by those close to her.
