Gambia's president wants all homosexuals or those aiding them to LEAVE the country.
Gay men and lesbians must leave the country within 24 hours or face "serious consequences," the President of Gambia said on Thursday.The Daily Observer also agrees with the President
President Yahya Jammeh turned on homosexuals and foreigners in an address at a victory celebration rally in Tallinding.
The Daily Observer reported that the President had issued:
"An ultimatum to homosexuals, drug dealers, thieves and other criminals, to leave The Gambia or face serious consequences if caught.
"The President equally warned all those who harbour such individuals to kick them out of their compounds, noting that a mass patrol will be conducted on the instructions of the IGP and the director of the Gambia Immigration Department to weed bad elements in society."
"Any hotel, lodge or motel that lodges this kind of individuals will be closed down, because this act is unlawful." he said.
"We are in a Muslim dominated country and I will not and shall never accept such individuals in this country."
Look, we are not interested in stoning anyone, even homosexuals. What our President is saying, and we agree with him totally ("as usual" I hear you moan!) is this: Ours is a society guided by religious principles.
Those religious principles leave no room for homosexuality. Sex and marriage in our culture is between man and woman. Sex and marriage between a man and a man, a woman and a woman, is viewed as irreligious and gross by the vast majority of our people here (just as in the West they would view sex and marriage between a man and a goat)!
So, please respect our religions, cultures and traditions by keeping your homosexuality out of our country.
WTF?!
