The Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) has banned six children programmes on pay television DSTV, and GOTV, the chief executive officer Ezekiel Mutua said.

According to a statement from the board, the banned programmes were said to be promoting homosexuality among children and were also banned after KFCB received complaints from people.

"Most of these programs target vulnerable children with subtle messages that are deliberately designed to corrupt their moral judgement regarding the institution of family," the statement reads.

The banned programmes include Loud House, the Legend of Korra and Hey Arnold, which are animation TV shows aired on the Nickelodeon channels.Others are Steven Universe and Adventure Time on Cartoon Network, another channel available on DSTV and GOTV.
