Gambian President Condemns Homosexuality



The President of Gambia, His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr. Yahya Abdul-Azziz Jemus Junkung Jammeh, is the latest African statesman to indulge in what is now almost a Presidential right of passage: gay bashing in the name of religion. Jammeh worries that the emergence of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people in Gambia may be the warning sign of an emerging democracy, the Daily Observer reports.
Homosexual
The Gambian leader declared a zero tolerance for homosexuals in The Gambia, adding that any act that violates the laws of the land will not be compromised. Describing homosexuality as ungodly and one that will not be tolerated in The Gambia, President Jammeh said that even pigs among other animals, do not involve in homosexuality. So why are the human beings who are not created from evolution of animal doing it? We will live according to what Allah has said.

We are descendants of Adam and Eve and here in The Gambia, it is only a husband and a wife (man and woman) and nothing else. I will rather die but I will not allow homosexuals or lesbians in this country. If that is what those so-called democracy advocators want, I will not allow it here, he stated, and attributed the disastrous change of climate as a punishment from Allah because of those ungodly acts.
