The Archbishop of Jos, Ignatius Kaigama, has condemned the
criminalization of gays in Nigeria. Speaking with the Vatican's
weekly publication,
The Tablet, on Wednesday October 8th, Archbishop
Kaigama said the catholic church does not support the criminalizing of
people due to their different sexual orientation and urged the federal
government to stop punishing gay people.
"We are not
supporting the criminalization of people with different sexual
orientations. We would defend any person with homosexual orientation who
is being harassed, who is being imprisoned, who is being punished. The
federal government may want to punish them, we don't. In fact, we will
tell the government to stop punishing those with different orientations"
he said.... Hmmmm
