Group Urges Buhari Not To Listen To Obama On Gay Issues

Project for Human Development, a Civil Society Organisation, on Sunday urged President Mohammadu Buhari not to listen to the US government on issues of gay rights, so as to protect the laws and values of Nigeria.
The call was made at a rally in Lagos, against the backdrop of Buhari’s visit to the US on Monday.
The theme of the rally was, “Gay Marriage: Obama, Please Leave Nigeria Alone.”
Buhari will on Monday, July 20, be at Washington DC on a four-day official visit, during which he will hold talks with President Barack Obama and other senior officials of the United States government.
Director-General of PHD, Mr. Jerry Okwuosa, said the rally was to hint Buhari on the fears by Nigerians that Obama might ask him to decriminalise “the Same Sex Prohibition Law of Nigeria.”
According to him, this is a way for the US to promote gay rights, which is a part of America foreign policy.
