British Soldiers have been exposed by the UK newspaper for committing sex rituals with prostitutes in kenya at their base in Nanyuki.
According to reports by the newspaper, the new recruits of british soldiers were expected to have sex with prostitutes to prove how brave they were as a welcoming ritual to their posting in Kenya.
Further reports indicate that senior soldiers in the base would toss a coin which would determine whether the recruit would be allowed to use a condom or they will do the ritual raw without protection.

“When this unit deploys on exercise (to the British Army Training Unit Kenya), they have an initiation ceremony for all the new soldiers who haven’t deployed to Kenya before. The more senior soldiers would flip a coin – heads you could use a condom, tails you could not.”
This has raised concerns after reports indicate that there is a rise of sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV infections among soldiers. However, a former UK official claims that the report is shocking.
“To hear that soldiers are being forced into some form of sexual initiation ceremony. Where HIV rates are very high shocks me to the core. It once again highlights a failure in leadership and that the culture in the Army is still fundamentally broken.”
According to the former Army intelligence officer Philip Ingram, Sexual health is a part of annual training for all service personnel and the allegations are shocking to the image of the military.
