Just a week after the Nigerian Senate passed the anti-gay sex bill, US president Barrack Obama issued a presidential memorandum directing 'all federal agencies engaged abroad to ensure that U.S. diplomacy and foreign assistance promote and protect the human rights of LGBT persons.

Linda has come again with this homosexual talk...lol. No, I'm not a homosexual, I love men...just cos I'm not shagging anyone (at the mo :-)) doesn't mean anything...hehehe!
Half the time I don't understand homosexuality, how anyone can be attracted to the same sex amazes me...but that doesn't give me the right to wish them death or imprisonment. I like to talk about this here 'cos a lot of you seem extremely passionate about the topic...all the comments! So continue to read and let's know what you think of Obama's memo...
“FACT SHEET: Working to Advance the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Persons Globally.
“The struggle to end discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons is a global challenge, and one that is central to the United States’ commitment to promoting human rights.”
--President Obama, December 6, 2011
Since taking office, President Obama has demonstrated that his vision for a brighter future includes greater equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Americans. The President and this Administration are dedicated to eliminating barriers to equality, fighting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and engaging LGBT communities across the country. The Administration’s dedication to LGBT rights does not stop at our borders, as the President made clear at the United Nations in September of this year when he said: “no country should deny people their rights because of who they love, which is why we must stand up for the rights of gays and lesbians everywhere.”
Today, President Obama issued a Presidential memorandum that directs all federal agencies engaged abroad to ensure that U.S. diplomacy and foreign assistance promote and protect the human rights of LGBT persons. Under the Obama Administration, agencies have already begun taking action to promote the fundamental human rights of LGBT persons everywhere. And now, following an interagency process coordinated by the National Security Staff, this memorandum directs the first-ever U.S. government strategy dedicated to combating human rights abuses against LGBT persons abroad.
Today’s memorandum applies to the Departments of State, the Treasury, Defense, Justice, Agriculture, Commerce, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Millennium Challenge Corporation, the Export-Import Bank, the United States Trade Representative, and such other agencies as the President may designate.
The memorandum directs agencies to:
*Combat the criminalization of LGBT status or conduct abroad.
*Protect vulnerable LGBT refugees and asylum seekers.
*Leverage foreign assistance to protect human rights and advance nondiscrimination.
*Ensure swift and meaningful U.S. responses to human rights abuses of LGBT persons abroad.
*Engage International Organizations in the fight against LGBT discrimination.
Report on progress.
Even before today’s memo, U.S. agencies have been working to protect and promote the rights of LBGT persons around the world. Since January 2009, Secretary Clinton has directed the Department of State to champion a comprehensive human rights agenda—one that includes the protection of LGBT people.
Around the world, the State Department is:
*Engaging bilaterally and regionally in conjunction with U.S. embassies, civil society, and multilateral agencies to encourage countries to repeal or reform laws that criminalize LGBT conduct or status.
*Reinforcing the human rights of LGBT people in multilateral fora, such as the UN Human Rights Council. In June 2011, the United States joined South Africa and a cross-regional group of co-sponsors in passing the first-ever UN Human Rights Council resolution on the human rights of LGBT persons.
*Promoting human rights worldwide. U.S. embassies are declaring the United States’ support for the human rights of LGBT people through innovative public diplomacy. Ambassadors and embassies have hosted public discussions and private roundtables, published op-eds and supported Pride events.
*Supporting LGBT human rights defenders and civil society groups, with programmatic and financial assistance, including efforts to document human rights violations; build advocacy skills; provide advocates with legal representation; and, when necessary, relocation support.
*Reporting on the conditions of human rights of LGBT people in each of its annual, country-specific Human Rights Reports.
*Strengthening the Department’s personnel and consular policies. The Secretary extended the range of legally available benefits and allowances to same-sex domestic partners of foreign service staff serving abroad. The United States also incorporated gender identity into federal equal employment opportunity policies in 2010.
*Protecting LGBT refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants through a protection strategy developed with other U.S. Government agencies, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and NGOs.”

this is the part that will interest Nigerians that are gay or claim to be... "Protecting LGBT refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants". in the next 6months i can guarantee the u.k and u.s embassies of a lot of "Gay" nigerians seeking to escape "prosecution".
but wait oh...arent some states in the u.s agianst gay marriages? talk about the proverbial kettle calling the pot BLACK. abeg i no fit go on vacation dey see "things" between man/man and woman/woman come enter 9ja come still see the same thing everybody should maintain this aspect of our culture. thank u
though im not gay, but whatever happened to human rights? the Nigerian courts might not engage, but let churches who dont see any wrong in it go ahead. and whats Obama's business with my country. he should GTFO
I understand Obama's POV, but personnally, culture is eliminated in the US, unlike here in Nigeria where it's still in existence. I personally support the bill, but i dont condemn those that practice them either. www.scopeam.blogspot.com
Lol. Senate has played its part, now its up to GEJ..
He is using the word 'global' as a tool. It's our country!
Anyway, I don't have anything against dem ppl but the world is definitely coming to an end. God save us all
A man's meal might be a poison to another.civilisation must not overshadow culture and ethics. If America is interested in Migeria,we welcome help from them to intervene in all other critical issues that matter to the well being of the entire populace,rather than dwell on a flimsy matter that is not worth it.How many LGBT can boast of themselves in the open?
America will not dictate how Nigeria is governed. seffinnih!!
Three words:NEW WORLD ORDER!
Tufikwa!! This is purely a despicable gesture for a well meaning human to think of deliberating on a issue as this one. It should not be discussed in the open. It leaves me asking WHY THE BROADCAST? You know what is right, then do it.
IT IS EMBARASSING for these 'foreign bodies' to condemn the bill sponsored by Sen. Domingo Obende calling it "violation of freedom of polution". Every sane country needs its people to adopt sane practices, here in Nigeria, we cannot be as insane as adopting homosexuality as a norm you hear?
It is purely an abberation, it is pure madness and every sane person should call it what it is....MADNESS
God's primary pupose for marriage cannot be altered, no matter how evil thrives. I am in full support of the penal codes as a way to deter Nigerians from engaging in such a way of life.They should all kept under surveillance 247 in a quarantine facility.
Okay o! Nigeria is in troubled. We need to beg gay people. I hope Obama doesn't bomb Surulere and Aso Rock :)
Arest gays not because they are criminals or have conducted in criminal activities, but because they are gays. 1. Prison no plenty to cater for criminals, na people when no do anything una wan arrest. 2. If dem fit arrest gays, then they can pass a bill to arrest women Coz they are just women and they are the most unfaithful in the world. Stuuuuuuuppppppiiiiiidddddddd people. Illitracy still reign supreme.

so that wen God wants to destroy it will be noted that God destroyed america the new generation sodom n gomorrah.
mr president sir named bush! allds ur memo is not going to work in nigeria. do ur administration in american govet while we do ours here. we ave issues of light, water good road n all, but trust me, we are ready to hold for those n fight to the last this demonic man fuck man.
oton!
All the problems we've been having in this country and the US president doesn't comment ,then Nigeria enacts gay laws which i don't necessarily agree to since we have other pressing concerns and then we get the attention of the united states.! wonderful!
Hurray!!!
It is my fundamental right as a Nigerian to;
*freedom of opinion,
*freedom of decision,
*freedom of selected religion,
*freedom of whom to FUCK,

Live and let live,I hope all members of Naija senate are banned from entering US and other foreigh countries. This all about fundamental human rights.
Too much info Linda... No one cares about who you are shagging. That comment is unncessary.
welcome people to the world of the Anti- Christ.. where Obama for dey if him papa be gay.. America and the west never solve their economic uncertainty but them get money to further the course of hell.. who tell you say them care about the gay? na lie na them papa satan them dey promote.. gay people wey neva chop , school, and you never do anything.. why wont Obama first get all American state to adopt full gay laws before poke nosing into our sovereign laws? hey everybody welcome to the generation of the man of lawlessness.. the anti God.. and to my beloved gay people, only God get your care at heart better run to Him. if he want you a girl or man as the case may be He would have created you with the proper organ.. the anus is for faeces and sperm to be introduced into a womb not into your stomach.. have mercy abeg...

Abeg oo LIB readers, i need gay partner oo, make we go seek asylum sharp sharp. I trust my naija peeps there will definitely be a lot of arrangy gay asylum seekers in 2012.
i dont want to read his statement juh! he should mind his business as he has always been doing in the boko haram issue! park well oga obama.
The bible clearly states in Leviticus Chapter 18 that is it a sin and is DETESTABLE - “‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.
SIMPLE!!!!!
Can we ever sell polygamy to the west??so why dem dey force dese gay matters on africa.
Obama,abeg abeg abeg,face ur country,wetin be him own,abeg,,,,i no wan vex dis afternoon,,,ah ah,,,,,
Oya o, Linda's readers come and curse Obama too. I'm sure you'll call him anti-Christ for wanting equal rights for all humans. After all trying to save a country from a civil rights war is only of the devil, that's why they shot Martin Luther King when he did it.
Awon ode.
Awon ILLUMINATI oshi!!!why won't he support GAYISM since its one of the evil things himself nd oda powerful men around the world engage themselves in wen they visit the BOHEMIAN GROVE.whether yu vote democratic or republican party,yu re still voting the illuminati/freemasons into power.support for homosexuality is all part of the plan to fully institute the New World Order which has already been set in motion.pple open ur eyes n don't be carried away by the pleasures of the world.these pple re in control of everything...he dt hath ears let him hear!!!
I just dont understand these onyibo people... people are dying of hunger and the world has soo many life threatening problems ... LGBT my a*#!
America is the most religious country in the world (I heard this on radio yesterday) yet she's a bastion of debauchery. The two cannot be reconciled. Which ever way you see it, she will protect ALL her citizens.
LGBTs usually vote along democratic lines. He got huge support and still gets huge support from the LGBT community so he will not abandon them now. It’s all about protecting the rights of EVERYONE.
At the UN in September he said "no country should deny people their rights to freedom of speech and freedom of religion, but also no country should deny people their rights because of who they love, which is why we must stand up for the rights of gays and lesbians everywhere."
With the anti-gay bill cropping up across the globe he has to make it a part of America's foreign policy.
*dancing* nigeria is in soup, let us see how they will take on america. Finaly some end to this madness, how can boko haram spokes man get 3 yrs *after all the killing* yet ppl who consent to love each other in the privacy of their houses, who pay taxes and live a peaceful life be asked to spend 14 years in jail. I just dont think this is worth it, we have worse crimes to fight than incure international wrath and dont dare say tradition, in pakistan women are berated, that is their tradition and it is wrong so is ours wetin gay pple do you, simply turn your face.
Obama i always knew you would make me proud.
Being gay is wrong fullstop. Just as wrong as lying , sex before marriage etc. We have no right to judge anybody.... He who is without sin cast the first stone and all that. Each to their own but the thing that pisses me off is when gay people try and justify that their lifestyle choice is not a sin. I dont think wishing them death or anything like that is right. Nigeria has a lot to focus on rather than who is gay or not thats the least of any problem we have.
Good one Obama, now you have given Nigerians opportunity to be an american resident and later citizen as this is an opportunity for people to claim asylum on the premise of being a LGBT. 9ja people, don't dull this opportunity, Senate, don't rescind the law please ooo. make we ship go America cheaply with less scrutiny.
U.S.A et tu? I laugh in Efik!
Look, some areas in the UK are quite tolerant of the LGBT and in one of the European states a Transvestite has been elected into office. And in UK half of the ancestors of their current Royalty were homosexuals and most of them in parliament etc are also gays ...so if they talk its understandable but some of the states in the U.S.A harbour some of the most homophobic people on this universe and they are open about it so who REALLY is fooling who?
TELL ME WETIN USA REALLY NEED FROM NAIJA YET AGAIN AS THEY ARE USING THIS GAY ISSUE AS A WEAK LINK TO PENETRATE OUR SOVEREIGNTY.
Every country has lawmakers elected into office by the citizens of those countries and they enact laws into place according to the wishes of the electorate.There are some laws we dislike but just have to obey else face the consequences. For instance I dont exactly enjoy paying so much tax....but what can I do
That said every Human Being has universal basic fundamental human rights which are to be respected and so I dont think this law will be taken that seriously.
I think people should b allowed to express their sexuality openly (like Derenle seems to do) without oppression as no one really can change anyone who chooses his/her path in life.
The pastor in London serving time in jail, whose twin has taken over the church (I forget his name) was gay as well as married, I mean the one caught for paedophilia. He had earlier on confided in trusted members of his church that he was gay even though he was married and that it was a constant struggle. To prove that even more the victim of his paedophile act was male!
Gays shouldnt be killed or burnt just for being gay. Jail terms will serve what exactly? So after serving time they will become heterosexual? Remember the pastor (mentioned earlier) said even while married he was still struggling with homosexualism
So hounding them will only lead them underground or force them into miserable heterosexual marriages with extreme resentment against their wives who may or may not why the husband , dont want to make love in her vagina or cant stand her or beats her up etc.
Real life story: Please read: Dispatches on Gay-Africas last taboo: http://efemenaoreoluwa.blogspot.com/2010/09/dispatches-africas-last-taboo.html
where due to violence against gays, some were forced into marriages but secretly went to look for gay sex workers. One of the gay sex workers openly said he had hiv and was sleeping without condoms with these men bcos they wanted it like that and paid extra cash for the service..He argued that being ostracised from society and fearing for his life he needed the money to survive and take care of his baby sis who stays with him in one room (and who sees him sleeping with several men for money)he said he was sorry for spreading it to these men who spread it to their wives as they must be seen to be macho and must at least sleep with their wives but that he must make his money.
True life story there, caught in camera and all.
As much as you have the right to post on gay/homosexual issues and I/we have the right to express my/our opinions about it, I think this gay issue done tire me Que sera sera / cest la vie
am sure say this garbage didn't even make the headlines in any of the main US Dailys/Media Houses!!
Mr obama, go and sit ur fucking black ass down. Wetin concern u for dis matter. We dont want nah. Na by force?
We don't interfere in how they make their laws,they shouldn't interfere with ours. i'm sure if it was saudi arabia that passed such a bill,they wouldn't be issuing such threats. Fucking bullies! For the record,i stand in support support of that bill!
A few weeks ago, i was lookin for a job before service next year march, i realised that an NGO moved into a vacant house on my street. Its kinda like a low key NG0 since my area is residential. So on a sunday after church, i went to the door, and saw a lil paper bearin the name of the NG0, i forgotten the name buh its something Men's health HIV, i now googled it and found out that its a sub of a big NGO providing health advice for gay guys, right on my street.
Thing is, people on my street just think its a normal NGO for HIV, i now started noticing guys frequent the place, never have i seen a single chic, and big SUVs, i'm really mad, why on my street? i now peep at their activities (i know i'm jobless), i go soon out them. i live in kaduna by the way.

Abeg Lindo! No stop to dey talk o. People don't want to get educated. This is why people are so ignorant enough to think/say that homosexuality is un-African/ a Western phenomenon. Men and men; women and women having been shagging themselves in all parts of Africa for a long time now. Don't let me even start talking about the Muslim northerners in Nigeria.
Please continue bringing these news to us. Some people only want to look at wedding photos and other event photos so they can make criticize without thinking. Nonsense!
Pls I am Zoophyllic I want to marry my Dawg, Obama pls come and help us. Nig will soon put us to 24 yrs imprisonment. Pls pls pls Linda beg Obama for us we are plenty in Nig. Eheen we also have another group of ppl like Linda, they are also married to their laptops and will also want to legalise it. A CRY 4 HELP
The Nigerian Senate should fight Obama to a stand still. They should refer Obama to a man that claimed that Obama took drugs and had sex with him in the US. So, Obama could be gay or bisexual.
http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=56626
The British PM Cameron could have being gay too. He once confessed to taking weed when he was at university; maybe he has tried having sex with men too.
Linda you are so qick to post jist on gay issues, there was a blast in Kaduna and 7 people have been confirmed dead,pls bring us that story not gay jist all the time
linda enuf jor ! wat is ur own ?
come to think of it if i ddnt av an american passport,i would head to d embassy to seek asylum.dis mumu americans dnt no say 9ja sharp,abi dey are refusing most of them visa cos of boko,dey must start givin them now cos of gay right.we are having the last laf ! looooool
See this is where I put down my blue passport and pick up my green one. Why can't America and Britain EVER stay out of other countries' business? When as Nigeria or any other country ever told America what to do in their land? This is why they are hated all over the world. Govern your own people, Mr. Obama (whom I love but you dey fall my hand o) and stop pandering for Gay votes by injecting yourself into other people's affairs.
As a Christian, do I think they should get married in church? NO. However, do I feel that gay people should be jailed and denied civil rights to marriage, NO. If they want to marry in civil court, I don't care. I do think Nigeria has far WORST problems than gay people and their desired to get married.
Fix the economy
Fix the social infrastructure
Fix the hospitals
Stop bribery and corruption
Fix the police force
Stop Boko Haram
Stop Kidnappers
Stop arm robbery
Fix the education system
This is what concerns the people. This is what people vote for leaders to do!
I honestly dont support persecuting the LGBT rubbish,but they should not just legalize it like dem goin to church and stuffs.....It is really annoyin and a sad sight to see....So Obama shld let us be o....werin concern am wit how we choose to rule
GO Obama, makesure u keep granting the permits to the asylum seekers 'cos that number is gonna be on the increase.....Everyone seeking geener pastures is gonna claim to be L or G henceforth.
WHEN BOKO HARAM WAS KILLING OUR PEOPLE, THAT ONE DIDN'T BOTHER YOU ABI?
Are men who wear their girlfriend's g-string gay, bisexual, or transgender? Or am I gay, bisexual and transgender? Am I just a cross-dresser? I'm confused. Please help.
"Everyone's sexuality is their business but this in a third world Country that's still battling to unite as one is BS, ignorant, and selfishness at the highest level. We have people dying for religious reasons, yet some want a BLOODBATH for their sexuality. You've got to be kidding me, Linda Ikeji said it best why on earth is this even am issue in Nigeria?"
Yes am repeating myself!!! I have gay friends, their sexuality is their business i for one love them for who they are. The truth is some people just don't understand, British Billionaire Richard Branson wrote on his blog today
"Nigeria’s cruel anti-gay law - Richard Branson
Too sad to comprehend that Nigeria are passing a law in this day and age to put gay people in prison just for being gay.
The Prohibition of Same-Sex Marriage Bill passed through Nigeria’s Senate unopposed last week. It means gay couples entering into either marriage or cohabitation will be jailed for up to 14 years. Even people "witnessing" or "abetting" gay relationships could be punished under this sad, repressive and cruel law.
Like everyone else in society, gay people have an enormous amount to offer and Nigeria should embrace them not prosecute them.
All of us with influence in Nigeria must do what we can to stop this cruel law. I would urge educated Nigerians all over the world to do what they can to help fight this discrimination."
Who on earth are you a Billionaire from an Industrialized Country to have an opinion in this matter? I didn't see you blogging when more than 300 men, women, and Innocent children, God bless their heart!!! where decapitated in Jos for there religion, now you want to sit back and watch a nation be wiped out because of same-sex marriage? Am not for killing, jailing, nor any kind of Gay punishment, but this marriage matter in a country where children are killed because there parents are Christians, a country that's still fighting to be one, that's just heartless!!!
Let's be real, if you are a true Nigerian you in your heart know that the approval of same-sex marriage means that Nigeria have just approved for a Jihad,( yes it's like asking the middle east the same question) which would wipe out Nigeria. Everyone is allowed to love who they love, but when it means that Innocent people are to suffer for it, then it's time to take a step back, relax , and have a rethink of the matter.
God Bless us all.
God Bless Nigeria!!!
well said president barrack obama.bt this is africa;Nigeria to be precise n not USA.so back off!
Obama face your own make we face our own oh! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Go to kenya and tell them this rubbish not 9ja.mumu like you.
Oga abeg face ur own country wahala make we face our own now... we no want bi we no want.
Watz obamas biz with hw we want 2 run our country
I know talking about sexual orientation remains a very controversial issue, every modern society preaches that we should not openly criticize an individuals sexual orientation. They call it respecting the other person. But in doing that, there is also what they call freedom of speech, part of executing this freedom, open criticizing is part of it. Lets leave this issue of another day, the only thing I have with the Senate here is: there are lots of other issues that need urgent attention in Nigeria and it is my opinion that an individuals sexual orientation is the least of all the problems facing Nigeria. The senate should be seen tackling security, electricity (which is shameful to talk about in this day and age)and a taking Nigerians above the poverty line. It should make news round the world when Nigeria as a nation starts ranking with the likes of China as regards economy rather than making news round the world on Anti-Gay Bill. In all, I love my country.
So now Nierians can seek asylum abroad on the basis that they are "vulnerable homosexuals" and they want to kill them in their country...abeg where my family dey? they shld turn homosexual for this reasoon abeg! GTFOH *sigh* the pple God will whoop ass plenty :)
Linda, i don't think you understand gay rights very well. If you say you have no problem with gay people doing what they do but you dont think marriage between them is right, then you are just part of the Nigerian homophobic population.
I mean people commit all sorts of sins everyday in Nigeria. They lie, cheat, fornicate, commit adultery, incest, rituals, prostitute and all sorts. Gay people are the least of our problems. I am neither against them or for them. Infact, I dont care what they do. Let them get married or whatever they want. As long as peodophilia, incest, rape, zoophilia and prostitution is a mainstay in this country, then I dont give a damn about consenting same sex couples.
I have finally said my piece on this whole thing.
whats there own now with our own here in our country? they should leave us alone and let us rule it ourselves coz we knw wat we want and more over we are no longer under them or being colonize by them. so let them leave us alone.
Why Linda do you feel you have clarify you are not gay just because you are posting important information about gay rights. I don't know if its a Nigerian thing but it seems like people feel one must be part of a group if they are supporting their cause. That's how on a previous post someone said maybe Richard Branson has dabled in being gay. So Obama too abi? I'm so glad he is setting the example.Nigeria now just appears even more backward! This is nothing to do with culture or religion it is human rights! You can keep your beliefs to yourself, frown upon behaviour but to make it illegal is another thing!
pls dis man should mind his business which is America and leave Nigeria alone....Lgbt kor...Hissss
Obama and the US should mind their business. They should face their economic depression and create jobs for their people before he helps another country. Does he think that he is the president of the world????
Aproko!! Don't take panadol for Nigeria's headache. lol SMH
they can only say this to you nigerians and africans...why not let them tell it to iran, saudi arabia and other islamic nations that has a death sentence to gay people....
linda,....u are not gay fine and i believe you...but pray that ur child is never gay....
why can't they do their thing in secret without asking to be received by the world...
imagine nigeria with gays everywhere upon all the poverty....
Death or imprisonment should not be allowed. But I'm not feeling the whole gay thing men! MAN FOR WOMAN, WOMAN FOR MAN. THAT'S HOW GOD CREATED IT AND THAT'S JUST HOW NATURE IS. YOU CAN'T PROVE NATURE OR GOD WRONG. THERE ARE BETTER THINGS TO HELP US WITH IN OUR COUNTRY OBAMA
I have one question to ask: Are we still under any Western rule? Why should we allow outsiders to dictate what will happen in our country? if they are so concerned about the rights of our citizens, they should fight for the poor masses,those who can't afford three square meal in a day, those who have to engage in any type of activity just to survive another day, those vulnerable children who are being manipulated by heartless adults everyday, the epileptic power situation in our country, security and others. There are many rights in Nigeria to fight for than homosexuality. it is high time Nigerians upheld their integrity and stop this western cultural imperialism.
Obama if una(USA) love nigeria so much as to poke nose on this matter then why una dey refuse people visiting visa to come to your country as una love us reach.mmmssshhheeewww.
Thank you anonymous December 7, 2011 3:05 PM "WHEN BOKO HARAM WAS KILLING OUR PEOPLE, THAT ONE DIDN'T BOTHER YOU ABI?"...my thoughts exactly.
It pains me to say this but I shall not be voting for Obama again, the guy seems like a puppet (why do I even sound surprised sef, no offense to democrats but democrat politicians tend to tweak that way) . All these western peeps should please BACK OFF! once and for all, thank you :) Then again my fellow Nigerians this is what we get when we are always seeking western aid et al INSTEAD of LOOKING WITHIN OURSELVES.
AT THIS POINT I THINK NIGERIANS ARE THE MOST IGNORANT PEOPLE ON EARTH (THEIR RECENT SSCE SCORES SUPPORT THAT).
WHEN IT COMES TO RECEIVING AID & EVERYTHING ELSE FROM AMERICA IT'S ALL GOOD BUT WHEN IT COMES TO.
EVERYTHING IN NIGERIA IS FOREIGN: CLOTHES (YES AFRICANS WERE NAKED TILL WHITES BROUGHT YOU CLOTHES)
CARS, COMPUTERS, YOUR JOBS, YOUR EDUCATION, ELECTRICITY.
EVEN THE FALSE RELIGION YOU DEFEND IS IMPORTED.
YOU CLAIM TO HAVE NATURAL RESOURCES WHEN ALL THE TECHNOLOGY FOR DRILLING AND REFINING IT IS FOREIGN. THOSE RESOURCES WERE SHOWN TO YOU BY THE WEST.
THE WEST DRILLS YOUR OIL, SELLS IT FOR YOU, BUYS IT FROM YOU, REFINE IT FOR YOU, SELL IT TO YOU TO USE IN CARS THEY MADE FOR YOU.
THE LANGUAGE YOU USE TO TYPE ON THIS BLOG IS FOREIGN.
NIGERIA IS EMPTY AND HAS ONLY IGNORANT PEOPLE.
Linda, I don laugh tire for these comments......how funny it will interest y'all to know that some naija guys have taken to changing their sex....for details read my blog.
Obama is an Antichrist
He is pro-everything the bible says we shouldn't do and be
and anti-everything the bible stands for.
If you're a christian that believes in what the bible says then you shouldn't support this man anymore

He has been in office for three years and you are staring at a picture with his name spelled on it. But you somehow still manage to spell it as "Barrack?" The worst way to offend someone is to not get the spelling of their name right.

IGNORANT NIGERIAN: GOD WILL PUNISH THEM.
ANSWER: LET'S LET GOD DO IT FIRST. CANADA IS ONE OF THE MOST PROSPEROUS, PEACEFUL AND THRIVING COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD AND THE HAVE LEGALIZED GAY MARRIAGE. I WONDER WHY HE HASN'T SENT FIRE THERE AS AN EXAMPLE.
I THINK HE SHOULD FIRST SAVE YOUR COUNTRY FROM ALL THE INNOCENT BABIES THAT ARE KILLED DAILY, THE BOMBS AND ACCIDENTS. EITHER HE'S TOO BUSY OR HE' CANT DO SHIT. (NIGERIANS HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR DECADES AND SHIT GETS WORSE)
It is so funny how when it comes to gays america etc have something to say. Being gay is a sin fullstop!!! So is lying and sex before marriage. If u wanna be gay thats your own just dont go around saying what u r doing is right. Gay people shd marry if they like but by no means in a church thats is taking this shit too far. They should also not be allowed to adopt or have children. If they want what children they should do the right thing and stop their perversion. Oooo it is until it is time to born pekin before they now know that man and man or woman and woman no fit born! Cos that is not the way God intended it. If u r gay u r a pervert thats the bottom line.
why can't america and britain stay out of your business? maybe cos they pay nigeria millions of pounds and dollars in AID for no services oh.
you don't want them to interfere?! stop fucking taking their money. nigerians are so delusional.
Obama we know ur plan...u can't disintegrate Nigeria, we r still one nation no matter what. Nigeria can not and will never be destroyed the way u did to Libya because of oil. We are no fools and we can see through your plans. For all we care you can give all the gays in the world asylum in America.
OH OH OH. SO INCEST IS AN ABOMINATION TOO. WHO DID CAIN IN THE BIBLE MARRY?
I CAN NAME A FEW OTHER DUDES THAT MARRIED THEIR COUSINS.
POLYGAMY WAS COOL TOO. GOD APPROVED IT ALL. AL OF A SUDDEN HE CHANGED HIS MIND. TALK ABOUT FLIP FLOPPING.
...never knew we were under colonialism!
... so asylum would be granted to 'vulnerable homosexuals'....hey! papa bomboy! iya rashida! boy alico! oya, forward march to america embassy, free visa without stress waiting for us oooo!. don't acknowledge me as your father or husband when we get there, una hear?
By the time niajas show them, they would be speaking another language! #laughing wickedly!#
Men this shows that Nigeria is a nation of buffoons. Of all the problem Nigeria has, where in that order does gay/ gay marriage stand? the constitution as it was did not recognise gay marriage as with most countries in the world so why the hell now make a law to that effect. The schools are still bad, electricity no dey,churches are donation arenas and am yet to see an headline that say gays are causing a national headache and there we are shouting and praising the legislators for a job well done. To make matters worse the law is so lame that a policeman can stop you because he thinks you are gay and you can be sentenced based on that. Nigeria don fall my hand patapata. All the Senators can like do backflip on top River naija. Goats
They should start legalizing man and beast marriage na!! If my dog and i love each other, we should be able to get married!...or i pick a baboon on the street. US should mind their freaking bizness and not push their corruption here. No gay marriage in Nigeria...what the hell!!!!!
LMAO! Shey I said it. Illuminati, anti-Christ...I knew the ignorance would start.
They are not FORCING gay issues on Africa, they are FORCING Africa to not JAIL people for 14 years because of their sexuality. To all the people asking why he would fix the one in America first, NOWHERE in the United States is it illegal to be a gay person. Some state DO NOT RECOGNIZE gay marriage, that does not mean it is illegal. It means if two fags like, they can marry but they will not have the same rights as us in that state.
USE YOUR BRAINS! The same bible you're quoting also says "My people die for lack of knowledge"! Stop making ignorant arguments. We can choose to NOT RECOGNIZE gay marriage, but it is UNJUST and AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION to JAIL them.
Period!
I recommend that we change our government to the Catholic church. That way no one would have to argue for separation of church and state...all in favor say "I"!
Obama go and fix your fucking country first and also increase the number of visas you grant to nigerians by 70% before you can start talking about gay people.
Where is the world heading to?Fundamental human right and we are going crazy,while they are blindly claiming they are civilizing and claiming their right.
Which is superior,personal right or sovereign?Why must one nation mandating another one to implement or enforce a law she is using,even when the highest law making arm of that country had passed a law,its feels is conducive,to her people?Please tell Obama and his country,together with all other nations to let Nigeria and her people be.He and their people are free to enact the laws that are conducive to their people,but they should and must not force hard pills down other nations' throat,or don't he and his nation think its a violation of other nations' right to be meddling in their internal affairs?
In a lesbian relationship a woman assumes the position of a man, wears a strap on and straddles her girlfriend.
In a homosexual relationship, one of them is the effeminate one who most likely would want children etc
Go Figure
It is and always will be a MAN for a WOMAN all the rest are perversion
Happy for the asylum thing though, another means of migration. Mind you america is facing a recession and are now even more hostile to 'refugees' say less homosexual 'black/non white' refugees..Three things they absolutely hate.

Nigeria is backward,our leaders are ignorant..why on earth do people have to jailed for beign gay? Everyone has the right to love whoever they want to love..they don't have to legalise gay marriage but they don't also have to be jailed.
It's only GOD that can judge them,because it's a sin in his eye just as fornication,theft,adultery,lies..so Nigeria and the shitty people making laws should discuss the betterment of the nation and leave that for God to judge!
Linda, our first lady has the answer to Obama. Hear her.

Gbam! Shikena! Case Closed.
Obama dey mad! he shouldnt just get me annoyed naw if not what happened in Dublin in 1759 will happen now? who mad him Lord over us? to decide when a particular thing is bad or good. What rubbish?????? Just to say Americans dont torture prisoners, they started Guantanamo bay, What's the difference btw torturing a person on an American soil and outside America by Americans. In short, America de gbongboro ciga! Why did Obama not take Osama to court instead of killing him and not even giving him the right to be buried by his family. Nonsense Mr Right
Seriously speaking, I think there more to ds dn d way we r reading or hearing it in d news considering d fact dt German ambassador av gone to see David Mark, Canadian av gone to see kano governor,Australian govt, Richard Branson and now Obama all speaking abt ds issue in d spate of 2wks.wat is going on?it seems some pple want to use Nigeria to achieve some purpose.
Wat is d fuss abt? Everybody knws nig. Is not ripe for ds gay thing, even if senators shuld pass d bill, nigerian society will not accept dm moreva ao many of dm r even in Nigeria?wat is their population? Ao many of dm are even willing to marry?Yes, dey do exist in Nig. but dey r just in it for pleasure nothing more but d way international community is taking ds baffles mi. Is their more to ds? Is their sumting dey r not telling us? bcos seriously ds is not an issue at all.
Tani Obama , nibo ni idile won wa , which part of nIgeria is he from , which ethnic group does he belong to , can he speak Yoruba , Igbo or Hausa , omo ale ni ooooh , ko ni rogba Fu. , wetin concern am , I do not blame the imperialist dog when our very own Jonathan dances at his callings why should he not poke his nose in our affairs .
I as a person will say Obama has nothing on this issue because this is the country called Nigeria. Although,i strongly believe that the Nigerian government are not facing the fact about Nigeria. Because it has been written towards the end time strange things will happen and this is one of them, it has also been written men will dress like women while women will dress like men. I for one will say the Nigerian government should channel their time into something productive because on judgment day everybody will receive their judgment including the members of the church because that is the place God said his judgment will begin my people how can you ex-plane a pastor who has 3 private jets and their are children on the street of Oshodi who have not eating and so much more.People who believe in God should let his word come to past and don't try to fight his word because either you and i like it this matter will come to past and nobody and i mean no body can change it. Thanks Linda you too much
@Kejin u be correct ignorant goat,d bibile says during d end times u will hear of and see strange things happening.i am not surprised with this gay issue nd @d idiot emy dat is chatting shit hope u will be visited soon by d anger of God..obama aw wld u feel if ur kids turn out 2 be leasbians stupid kenyan man
We need and Anti-Fornication Bill too...
Pls, with all due respect, president Obama shd mind his own business!!! If he wants to convert Nigeria to America then let him come & be our president too. Nobody challenged him wn he "advised" his ppl not to come to 9ja, & now he feels he can poke his nose deeper into our business. If he doesn't knw, with d way any & every rubbish is tolerated in his country, america may soon collapse with a loud CRASH!!! God neva eva lies: Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to ANY nation!!!!!!!!?
kai this is getting so serious and interesting*grabs popcorn* lets see how dis unfolds.GOD HELP US.wtf is Obama's own with my own country abeg he should mind his fucking business and put his eyes away.hiss
this is absolutely ridiculous. does anyone ever question united states when they make their rules? i hope nigeria stands her ground. enuf of this external influences. it is our country.
kejiN ure entitled to your opinion and the illuminati/anti christ people are entitled to theirs
so STHU ,deal with the log of ignorance in your eyes before trying to remove the speck from others
oniranu!!!!
Obama, go sit down joo.which one be ya own self? here na naija, no be yankee.so no tel us wetin we go do for awa country.no worry, in few months' time 'gay' people in naija go run to our country for assylum.thank u for giving my naija people opportunity to come US without visa.Pls don't tell us what to do here in this country, just face ur country with all the headaches of security, moral degeneration and economic recess.
I am all for human rights. I will say LGBT are given rights to do whatever they want to do. I don't know what other privileges they are looking for. I'm against bullying, but people get so SENTIMENTAL WITHOUT REASON about homosexuals.
I don't agree with death sentence or imprisonment neither but I can also understand why Nigeria will have a law like that.
People that are not gay are bullied all the time. Kids are bullied for different reasons, for being an oddball which includes being a nerd, not being popular maybe not being cute according to what they see on TV. Bullying in general is wrong, so why should I be crying over gays that are bullied. Here in America, gays walk around, do whatever the hell they want to do. Homosexuals are the most sensitive group of people. If you are simply looking or say, I don't agree they will immediately label you as HOMOPHOBIC. What happened to our freedom of speech as heterosexuals?
When I see a girl who is selling her body or who is very promisicuous, a guy who is selling drugs, i frown on what I don't agree with, PERIOD.
ENOUGH OF AMERICA AND EUROPE INTERFERRING IN OTHER COUNTRY'S BUSINESS. OUR CULTURES ARE DIFFERENT, OUR BELIEFS ARE DIFFERENT, OUR WAY OF LIFE IS DIFFERENT, SO WHAT MAKES AMERICA THE RIGHT WAY ALL THE TIME.
AMERICA IS SUCH A " BULLY" COUNTRY, I SENSE A MODERN DAY COLONIALISM WHERE THEY TRY TO IMPOSE THEIR WAY ON MUSLIM COUNTRIES AND NOW NIGERIA IS THE TARGET. AMERICA AND EUROPE PICK ON THE COUNTRY THAT THEY KNOW THEY CAN EASILY PICK ON. AMERICA FACE YOUR BUSINESS, YOU GUYS HAVE SO MUCH TO FOCUS ON IN YOUR COUNTRY. SOME MUSLIM COUNTRIES ARE NOT AS BAD AS HOW IT'S PORTRAYED ON AMERICAN MEDIA. JUST BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT SEE A WOMAN WALKING AROUND HALF NAKED SHOWING HER NEWLY DONE SET OF BOOBS AS OPPOSED TO A WOMAN COVERING HER FACE DOES NOT MAKE ONE RIGHT.
WHY DON'T THEY GO AFTER CHINA OR JAPAN? NO, BECAUSE ASIANS WILL NOT ALLOW IT ESPECIALLY NOW THAT CHINA AND JAPAN ARE UP THERE.
NIGERIA, WATCH OUT NOW. I'M GETTING THE FEELING THAT WE ARE NEXT. MAYBE, WE ARE THE NEXT LIBYA. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE EXTRA ATTENTION THAT NIGERIA HAS BEEN GETTING FROM THE WEST LATELY. THEY START BY PRAISING US, AND ALL FRIENDLY, THEN WAR BEGINS....
KEEP IN MIND, THEY GO AFTER A COUNTRY THAT THEY CAN EASILY TAKE OUT, AND IT'S ALSO GOOD THAT WE HAVE OIL. AMERICA AS A WHOLE SHOULD INVEST IN GETTING THE ANTI BULLY BECAUSE IT FITS THEM PERFECTLY.
Nigeria, need to step up. This is the secret china and Japan have learned and are practicing, which has brought them far. They keep their eyes and brain open. They built their country to a standard that can't be messed with and have a mind of their own. But, no Nigerians get impressed by little attention that they get, fall into the hands of the enemy and play with the enemies with no strategy but claim, oh, I'm just enjoying myself. You can enjoy yourself, but learn how to use your commonsense. Use your talent and skill to build the country. I have nothing against America or Europe just stating facts and want us to be more aware that things are not always what you think it is on the surface.
Nigeria is an independent country with respect for humanity; Africa is a continent with good morals. Irrespective of western inflicted poverty, we still know what is good for us. if Obama want to protect gay, let him change us immigration laws to favour them. In fact us lottery visa should be reserved for them alone. Nonsense!
NA WA O.THE GAY LOBBYING GROUP IS A RICH AND INFLUENTIAL ONE. OBAMA NEEDS MONEY FOR PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAGNE BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
IT'S FUNNY SHA. FOR YEARS,BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS(EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, CHILD SAFETY..) HAVE NOT BEEN RESPECTED IN NIGERIA.
THE WEST NEVER SPOKE UP AGAINST IT. FOR DECADES OUR CORRUPT POLITICIANS HAVE LOOTED THE COUNTRY AND STASHED AWAY (FOREIGN AID) THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED TO DEVELOP NIGERIA. THE WEST NEVER THREATENED TO WITHDRAW THEIR FINANCIAL AID.
GOVERNOR YERIMA MARRIES 13 YR OLD GIRI. STILL THE SAME SILENCE FROM THE WEST. NO FIGHT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS.
FOREIGN COMPANIES COME TO NIGERIA AND EVADE THEIR TAXES, WITHOLD SALARIES FROM WORKERS, MOLEST KIDS.STILL NO OUTCRY FROM THE WESTERN GOVERNMENTS AND INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS ORGANISATIONS
CHUDE JIDEONWO WAS NOT "ASHAMED TO BE A NIGERIA" :ROLLEYES:
GAY MARRIAGE AND PERVERSE GAY PRIDE MARCHES ARE OUTLAWED. AND NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN HUMAN RIGHTS 'VOLTRONS' ARE SPROUTING EVERYWHERE TALKING ABOUT HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSE!
OBAMA REALLY NEEDS TO SHUT UP AND GO AND SIT HIS BLACK ASS DOWN.ANUMANU!!

PEOPLE ARE DYING OF HUNGER AROUND THE WORLD AND WHY WE'RE SPPOSEED TO FEEL SORRY FOR A GROUP OF PEOPLE JUST BECUASE THEY CANT MARRY PEOPLE OF THE SAME GENDER? R U FRIGGING KIDDING ME!!!!

HMMMM, NIGERIANS!!!! YOUR SENATORS HAVE USED THIS TO DISTRACT YOU FROM REAL ISSUES. HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR A SECOND?!
WHERE WERE THESE GAY PPLE ALL THIS WHILE? DID THEY HAVE THE LIVER TO COME OUT IN PUBLIC? WHY DOES THIS RANK IN THE COUNTRY'S TOP 10 PROBLEMS? 2 CONSENTING ADULTS (ADULTS O!) ENTER INTO A RELATIONSHIP AND THEY ARE TO GO TO JAIL MEANWHILE YERIMA IS DISVIRIGING 12 YEAR OLDS RIGHT THERE IN THEIR MIDST (A REAL CRIME!) AND THEY LOOK THE OTHER WAY.
NIGERIANS, WAKE UP!!! BOKO HARAM KILLS PEOPLE EVERYDAY, YOUR NEW YEAR PRESENT OF FUEL SUBSIDY REMOVAL AWAITS YOU COME JANUARY, A SMALL AFRICAN COUNTRY WITHOUT A DROP OF OIL TO BOAST OF IS REFINING YOUR OIL AND SELLING BACK TO YOU. WTF DOES GAY PPLE HAVE TO DO WITH YOU? EVEN BABA GOD HIMSELF GAVE PEOPLE FREE WILL TO DO AS THEY LIKE AND UNA GO MEET FOR JUDGEMENT DAY.
DO YOU EVEN HAVE AN IDEA HOW POLICEMEN WILL START ARRESTING PEOPLE INDISCRIMINATELY BECAUSE OF THIS NEW LAW? YOU SHOULD KNOW BY NOW THAT THEY KNOW HOW TO TAKE THINGS TO THE EXTREME. tO HUG YOUR SISTER IN PUBLIC NOW GO HARD YOU.
ANYWAY, NIGERIANS NOW HAVE A GOOD EXCUSE FOR ENTERING AMERICA IN THE NAME OF GAY PERSECUTION. AN AVENUE THAT EVEN STRAIGHT PEOPLE WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF, DIS ONE THAT DUBLIN DELIVERY DON CLOSE....
MSHEWWWW. UNA DAFT SHA....
Nigerians are hypocrites. Who introduced you to your present order and moral standards? The Europeans (Christianity) and the Arabs (Islam). Before the advent of these religions in Africa, your fore fathers were idol worshippers and kill human beings to appease their gods. The Europeans came and change all of that. All of a sudden you are trying to claim to be catholic, more than the Pope. Have you forgotten that Culture in itself is dynamic and not stagnant? Like they say "This season's wisdom", is another season foolishnes. Why is somebody sexual orientation becomes another person's problem? For your information, I am straight as it can be, but I have no problem with them gay.
PLEAS TO THE FOOLS WHO THINK THE WHITE MEN INTRODUCED CHRISTIANITY TO NIGERIA PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF, JESUS LIVED IN AFRICA FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS BEFORE HIS MISSION BEGAN.
ALSO IF YOU REMEMBER HE PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO AN AFRICAN WHO HE HE GAVE HIM A RIDE A FEW DAYS BEFORE HIS CRUCIFIXION N HE CAME BACK TO AFRICA TO SHARE THE WORD
ALL I KNOW IS THAT IF THEY CHOOSE TO PERMIT THE HOMOSEXUALS THEN NO ONE SHOULD BE ANGRY WITH PEDOPHILES OR PPL THAT PRACTISE BESTIALITY... THEY SHOULD OPEN THE FLOOD GATES OF SIN N LET IT ALL HANG OUT!
WHERE DO WE DRAW THE LINE?
A 113 YR OLD BOY SAYS HE LOVES A 13 YR OLD BOY AND HE IS ACCEPTED
WHY CANT A 13 YR OLD BOY LOVE HIS 30 YR OLD TEACHER N THEN WE ARREST THE TEACHER.. NO BE LOVE. WHY CANT THEY BE SURE TOO

this is ga ju. make i just dey siddon dey look. i don't support homosexuality neither do i support locking homosexuals in jail for 14 years. see evil boko haram person, he got just 3 years. and all of you are here not seeing the forest for the trees.
okay o
Emy why dont u leave linda ikeji's blog for us ehn? you seem like a very spiteful person and i pray God have mercy on you before it is too late as per calling the bible a mere fallacy by condemning what the bible stands for.
I'm not saying we should hate gays or anything. But you will agree with me when i say stealing, fighting, cursing, killing are all sin. So why should some one say homosexuality is right when we say killing and commiting adultery is wrong? I just think Gay people like attention sha because i dont go round telling people that i am heterosexual! pscheww ild pray 4 y'all including Emy, change your ways ooo if u see sin donot hide it and try to sugar coat it. love sinners but hate sin! :)
Ignorant Nigerians are missing the point as usual, The west don't give a fcuk about your perception of gay people but for christ sakes they do not deserve 14 years! you can ban same sex marriage if you like but why put them in jail that is a serious violation of human rights. Being gay is not a crime against the state, it might be a religious crime but Nigeria's constitution is not the koran or the bible so Nigerians please live and lets live dumbos!
You guys are stale! Nigerians have been claiming to be gay to the foreign govts for a long time.
The only problem with this is that a lot of real gays seeking asylum will get f*cked up because it will be the new trend among other desperate Nigerian immigrants.
There will be too much competition because even a family consisting of father, mother and children will now start claiming they are gay. lol. The desperation to live abroad with no clue of what they will encounter there will not kill us Nigerians.
Sincerely speaking, "international recognition or not,culture or not,religion or not",same sex or not,our government has got issues, Of all problems which they have failed to tackled,so an "anti-gay" bill is the next step for them?. It just such a shame, in-fact what fucking right have they got to pass such silly ass bills. Fellow people it might seem my own too much oo, but lets call a "spade a spade", this idiots and son of a bitches aren't given any of us citizens a dime, neither do they have such plans on passing a bill which gives every citizen an opportunity to at-tleat a 25,000 niara per month as government supports, or perhaps get an improved standard modern schooling protocol,or university students paying nothing less than a "thousands fees,well organized programs for the very young's and still growing up kid, a program for the homeless,the senior citizens e.t.c and yet all they can think about is an anti-gay law???.
For me it just makes no sense to pass such laws. Although I am not gay ,but at same time I happen to have many as friends, and I tell you they absolutely ain't different from we so called "straights"in-fact they are more trustworthy in most cases. They say "it not our culture", then please tell me what culture have we got? could it be the corruption which has been passed from "govt. to govt" or the fact some parent would rather prefer to beat up their children to a point of coma or having everlasting marks on their body instead of teaching them to do the right thing in the right way and at the right time. Really we keep talking about culture but all these days I really haven't found a defined meaning to the Nigerian culture, and this is because some people who makes themselves to be gods of the nation had made people loose so much orientation. As for Religion:you ask yourselves, should you having a religion, mean people must follow your believes?.
Guys, i know being a gay or lesbian might seem disgusting to you, but think of some idiotic so called gods of the nation killing innocent people or punishing people whom had done nothing wrong in choosing to prefer same sex, aren't their so called leaderships much more disgusting than they these people?
Nigeria is an independent country that can make their own decisions. There are gays in Nigeria, I know of one and he's been walking around, doing his thing, so what's up with this uproar all of sudden?
LGBT group need to chill out just like PETA need to chill out.
Another distraction from real issues that needs focus and attention. Nigerian Senate are not fooling anybody with their stupidity. With all the issues at hand, this is what they chose to focus on? Are you kidding me? It's truly sad.
I didn't say you're not entitled to your opinion. I just think that calling someone with different views from you in terms of asking that people not be jailed for love between consensual adults "Satan worshippers" and "Anti-Christ" is EXTREMELY ignorant nigga behavior.
If you think he is the ant-christ, go and protest in the White House/spray Holy water on him.
Questions?
EMY oooo! Show them! I LMAO!
People seem not to understand what the bill is about. If you are caught getting married to someone of the same gender or performing "gay" acts in public, you will face a jail term of 14 years. If you are caught in "gay" parades of any sort in Naija, you will face jail terms. If you choose to be gay and remain DISCREET about it as in, practicing your gay fucking and romancing away from the public eye, then you are safe. Gerrit?
Honestly my problem with gay lies more with homosexuals or man to man than lesbians. This is for the mere reason that when these guys are granted the freedom to get married the next step would be freedom to adopt children born by straight couples. For women is understandable that they can get a donor and carry the baby themselves, they can also have explanation for the kids and for their sexual activities they make use of the normal or same sexual organs used by straight people but for the men ........................gross all the way!
honestly i think everyone is just being too sensitive about the whole issue.....LIVE AND LET LIVE...Lets stop judging and leave that to God!........and i must say,alot of ignorant comments on this matter,you dont have to be insultive or rude to say your mind! pls lets act civilised.GOD WONT APPROVE OF ALL THE HATE!
Please Linda you are making your blog annoying.
You are always talking about Gay issues
I didn't think it was nice to post the pic of the baby involved in the ritual killing.
In the meantime can Obama pass a law allowing Polygamy instead......
When Africans talk about travelling for exposure I sometimes ask exposure to What....
They say we are backward for supporting say polygamy and they support same sex marriage why insult the word
oya if u wan travel go yankee dis is the best time to seek asylum...lol
OBAMA SUPPORTING THIS EVIL THING CANNOT GET YOU A 2ND TERM TICKET, BECAUSE AS A CHRISTIAN YOU HAVE SOLD YOUR MORAL CONSCIENCE, THE ALMIGHTY GOD OF ISRAEL THAT TOOK YOU THERE, IS NO LONGER HAPPY WITH YOU, SO YOUR TIME IS UP, PACK ALL YOUR BELONGINGS TO LEAVE THE WHITE HOUSE IN 2012.HOW WOULD YOU FEEL, IF YOUR 2 LOVELY DAUGHTERS BECOME LESBIANS,WOULD YOU BE HAPPY, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY YOU WON'T HAVE GRANDCHILDREN. YOUR CASE IS THAT OF SAUL IN THE BIBLE THAT WENT AGAINST GOD THAT MADE HIM KING AND HE HAD HIS KINGDOM TAKEN FROM HIM AND RIGHT NOW YOUR KINGDOM AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE U.S HAS BEEN TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU. REPENT OBAMA SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE HEAVEN BECAUSE THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NOT FOR GAYS OR LESBIANS OR THEIR SUPPORTERS. OBAMA IF THAT YOUR KENYAN FATHER WAS A GAY, WOULD YOU HAVE BECAME THE U.S PRESIDENT TODAY, NO OF COURSE BECAUSE YOU WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BORN. THINK TWICE UNCLE OBAMA WE ARE AFRICANS AND SAME WITH YOUR FATHER.
@Emy, go shove a beer bottle up your ass and allow me hear word. You can only spew this rubbish of yours because it's Nigeria.
If dem born you well go and say the same thing about Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries where you get killed for being gay and let me see if they won't cut off that your dick-sucking mouth! If it's discomforting to you, pack your over-elasticated rectum and relocate to the US! Rubbish!
FG+N/Assembly damn USA!!
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2011/12/same-sex-marriage-fg-nassembly-damn-us/
I don't know why most people think homosexualisom and lesbianism is strange in African culture. It has always been here and will always be. Just cause you feel a particular lifestyle is wrong doesn't mean you should outlaw it. These people have a CHOICE to be with whoever they CHOOSE to be with. its like going back to the freaking middle-ages! If you don't like gay people don't be friends with them, don't work with them, if they are related to you don't relate with them you two-faced Nigerians who sleep with underaged children, prostitutes and animals. FYI, homosexualism exists in our churches, schools, homes and even in the government! Wake up people! Keep your prejudices and opinions to yourselves! Most of you men here have taken part in threesomes or are dreaming of taking part in them. Fantasizing about 2 women nacking each other means you support the LGBT movement!! From what I know these 'perverted' lawmakers organize and partake in orgies with all types of perversions that will make you 'pious Nigerians' cringe. As long as the people involved are willing and consenting adults allow them jare. These jobless lawmakers should pass laws eradicating poverty and corruption instead of worrying about people loving each other. A little while ago, bi-racial marriages were frowned upon and all of you were saying that people should be allowed to marry irrespective of their race and colour abi? The same bible and culture you lot are shouting about condemns fornication, adultery, etc and how many of you can claim to be without sin? How many of you are faithful to their partners and how many of you are virgins? The bible says cheat, liars, fornicators and adulterers will be cast into the lake of fire! These are all abominations ooo. Who gives us the right to pick what sin is better or worse than the others? If the state refuses to grant them the right to get married fine but to jail them for being together? Seriously??? and you 'Christians' and 'Moslems" are happy? I hate any form of hypocrisy and prejudice jo!

Which kain stupid talk be that
We are saying OBama is an anti-christ like you
It is mentioned in the bible that the God Who created heaven and earth and everything in it hates/forbids homosexuality
We didnt make that up
He created a man and a woman for A REASON
so we arent the ones declaring obama and you antichrists
Its YOUR belief system and YOUR attitude that is making you an antichrist simply because if you dont believe in christ and what he stands for then you are anti-him gerrit
People are so FOOLISH in their thinking, no commonsense at all. The law is simply saying if gays are showing off or maybe holding hands, kissing in public you will be jailed. I know gays in nigeria who have been living their lives like every other person, nobody has jailed any of them. The law is also to put some in check, don't think you can do whatever now. A country that has too much freedom also has the most problems. I know America is not talking because with the freedom that they have, also has produced some of the most sickening things happening in this country. And this is a developed country.
Even, in America there are limitations and that's why we have Republicans and Democrats with different views. I'm not surprise because Obama is one of the most liberal president we ever had. So, I suggest that he stop his liberal ideology here because Nigeria will not turn into another America. This is the one of the reasons, I will still prefer a more conservative president but none of the candidates can be taken seriously.
Basically, gays can still live their lives as long as you do it in your own privacy. That's not too much to ask for. So, Nigeria will not turn into another Atlanta, DC, or San Francisco, these states and city have the highest homosexuals, and DC having the highest AIDS too. Obama is barely fixing the major problems in his country, so he should stay out of this one.
Giving homosexuals open rights in nigeria will come with consequences. There will be an increase of homosexuals, where they will say we have the freedom to do whatever, want to adopt children, they will start fighting for same sex marriage, they will want to copy America or Europe because they think that's the best way to go. Nigeria is still developing, we don't need all that we are still barely trying to fix the other pressing issues. We are not equipped for all of that, mentally and psychologically.
PEOPLE NEED TO STOP TAKING THE BILL DELIBERATELY, GAYS IN NIGERIA HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH NO IMPRISONMENT. THIS BILL IS JUST A WARNING LIKE IF WE SEE YOU GUYS DOING CERTAIN THINGS PUBLICLY, THEN WE WILL JAIL YOU. IT'S THAT SIMPLE PEOPLE, BUT PEOPLE JUST LIKE TO RUN THEIR MOUTH WITH BUNCH OF BULLSHIT COMING OUT OF IT.
Jonathan, we want to hear a senate bill about other IMPORTANT issues, I am sick and tired of this gay news. Is that all we have going for us now. IT'S A SHAME. Linda, I understand you are trying to be open and bring this issue to people's awareness. You have made your points across, NEXT.....

GAY IS PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER. OBAMA AND ALL THESE WESTERN COUNTRIES THAT SUPPORT GAY CAN HELP DEVELOP A CURE FOR IT AND NOT TO TELL US WHAT TO DO. NIGERIA HAS PROBLEMS; MONKEY NO FINE BUT EM MAMA LIKE AM. HUMAN RIGHTS MY FOOT. WHY RESTRICT A MENTALLY UNSTABLE PERSON TO A CLINIC? that is restriction on freedom of movement. GAY IS MENTAL SICKNESS TOO JUST THAT IT AFFECTS THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE BRAIN. FOR ALL YOU GAY NAIJA CITIZENs, YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL TO ME FOR REVEALING THIS SECRET, THE WEST IS HIDING FROM YOU BECAUSE IT SUPPORTS THEIR "NEW WORLD ORDER".
if supporting GAY is being ignorant, we choose to remain happy! as they say, ignorance is bliss.
America is getting more and more corrupt morally and we don't need all that in Nigeria. So, Mr President stay out of other country's business. Your country is in a mess. We have our own problems, and we are still trying to figure them out. So, leave us to our way of doing things.

Don't ask us for help and then complain when we step in to protect your citizens. I notice that most of the negative post are from illiterates, go read a book and stop embarrassing yourselves.
Having sex with animals is not the same as a homosexual relationship, animals cannot give consent and and product of an inter-species relationship would be born with defects if it even survives full-term.
You don't want America to focus on LGBT rights instead of more important thing then complain to your goverment for their wasteful discrimination.
Also if any of you could read the bible in it's original language you would know that you're mis-quoting that verse.
America sends you money and food already so shut up and say thank you, uneducated twits. Stop complaining about our help and volunteer and do more yourselves to take care of your country. You're not our responsibility, we help you from the kindness of our hearts.
For those of you intelligent and open-minded few here I am sorry you have to deal with such rubbish in you country.
I have heard of him before, but after watching his documentary “healing spell” I was turned on to the full story
about Dr uwa. He is a man who has the Cure for AIDS,Cancer, Sickle Cell, Herpes,warts,HPV,ALS Diabetes and every kind of
illness, through a whole foods vegetarian diet and natural herbs, what he calls Electric Foods. He went to herbal school college,
and has thousands of testimonials of healing people with Herpes, HIV AIDS, and HPV several other
illnesses. Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes of TLC was cured of Herpes by him and she was so moved by his knowledge that she went on
to spread the word about him in every way she could. She also opened a Cultural/Healing Center for Children in USA
before she passed away tragically. This all inspired me that i had to contact Dr uwa, because i was having Herpes
which could not be cure but was only managed, when i contacted Dr. uwa, he sent me some herbs which i took, and now i can tell you, i have be totally cured of Herpes, My Name is Jasmine, I am from the South Carolina, Please if you have any form
of illness especially STD,Infertility,HIV etc. you can contact him immediately through his Email Address
