With these kind of backward, uneducated brutes in charge of some countries, and their over educated but visionless counterparts in charge of others, is it any wonder Africa is going nowhere as a continent?
As the world progresses we humans realise the best way forward is to live in harmony together, exhibiting tolerance to those of other views and orientations from what we have. That is the way forward as a species, and unsurprisingly whenever you see intolerance on such a scale either religion or massive cultural prejudice is at play.
Comments like these do not sit well when uttered by an uncivilised idiot from any village in Ghana, much less the president of a country. Yahya Jammeh, in a speech at a rally in the town of Farafeni, threatened all homosexuals in his country.
“If you do it I will slit your throat. If you are a man and want to marry another man in this country and we catch you, no one will ever set eyes on you again, and no white person can do anything about it” President Jammeh said, according to The Washington Post.
Jammeh has a history with homosexuals having threatened to behead them once before, and has criminalised the act such that those caught could conceivably face life in prison.
Of course, Gambia is a Muslim majority nation and Jammeh’s rants are driven by his religion. Although the fact he has been in charge since a coup in 1994 and has increasingly used draconian measures to maintain his hold on power does not offend Allah in any way.
I understand that some countries govern their countries on religious beliefs and teachings but this is horrible. How can you slit a human being’s throat because you do not agree with their choice of partner. Why don’t you just leave them and let God deal with them? Personally, I believe that everyone is free to live their life how they want because it doesn’t affect my life but they will suffer for their actions but I won’t be the cause of it.
Slit their throat is something but seriously we need not conform to homosexuals..even animals wld not mate dier same sex how mu h humans?? Even a dog wld not find his other mall dog attractive. .let’s be sincere as a parent u wldnt let ur ur female child bring a female into ur house with da intention of dem getting a married n u wld be comfortable
This idiot is just looking for an outlet for his blood thirsty urges. The gay bit is just an excuse. He’ll spill blood for just sneezing. He’s a perfect example of what is wrong with Africa. No brains and no decency either. In a perfect world this guy will be nowhere near the seat of government. Let alone lead it. He’ll be harvesting sugar cane or slaughtering goats for khebabs. Sometimes I wish slavery had purged the continent of such vile and disgusting misfits. He’s a perfect candidate for eugenics where he’ll not be allowed to breed and will possibly be lobotomized as well. On behalf of humanity I hope this guy disappears from the face of time.
I wouldn’t suggest he slits their necks, I would However want to ask why the western wants Africans to embrace homosexuality but at the same time they don’t want to accept polygamy which most Africans subscribe to?
Yes, because I love my children and I am not an insane hate filled bigot.
