He's a politician.

Elections are not a test of intelligence, exposure, integrity or productivity.

He's trying to win a popularity contest in a country full of hypocritical, semi-literate, religious zealots.

What did you expect?

Well said.

Chapter 20 of the Nigerian criminal code. I made thread on this fact with majority of people in favor of these laws. Everything from witchcraft, charms and juju is alluded to.

Nigerian criminal code: http://www.wipo.int/wipolex/en/text.jsp?file_id=218191

Thanks for the link. We learn everyday.
I still do not believe we are still living under such archaic law in the 21st century. A law enacted in 1916.

This opening section made me laugh;

Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 1990




An Act to establish a code of criminal law.



1st day of June 1916



1. This Act may be cited as the Criminal Code Act.

And we will boast of having a national assembly we pay billions to make laws.

If I were Donald Duke I would stay away from this issue of homosexuality. This could damage his chances at presidency( if he ever had one).

it is already damaged,,

NOC1:
One problem we have in this country is our inability to read an article, we have made it a norm to make our news out of headlines.
The retweeting and and sharing of this headlines on Social Media has not done us any good.

If you are able to read his initial submission, you will agree with me that he was speaking from the constitutional angle. in the first line he condemned the act on personal view, he however allowed the laws of the land to be the Judge.

“I don’t understand the emotional feelings a gay person would have toward someone of their sexuality. I don’t understand it. But I would not criminalise them. I would ensure that they have the protection of the law. But if they want to exhibit their sexuality, then that’s an affront on the current norms of society.”

haha his presidency advocacy is dead ,, homosexuality is nonsense!!

slyfoxxjoe:
Lol he gave the right answer the first time but as typical with politicians he began 'clarifying' after backlash. I see no reason why homosexuality should be a government matter at all..especially in a country like Nigeria with much bigger problems for government to deal with.

that would hv added much more to our problems if it wasn’t!

Sharpshooota:
I thought this dude was exposed...

Homophobic people are illiterates

No wonder Africa is way behind than the rest of the world

yes we rather be this way!! We must not copy everything

Shugavee:

And to you homosexuality will affect his ability to be a good president?
No wonder Winston Churchill made the below quotes;

"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter." - Winston Churchill

yes yes yess yes yes ,,, I can’t hv my future children adopt nonsense or even become one!!

Homosexuality is bad, the truth is always bitter

And you think it was homosexuals that gave birth to homosexual children? Or it was homosexual parents that turned their children into homosexuals. You may be surprised that most parents of gays are not aware their children are gays.

You are yet to explain how having a president that is not homophobic ( not even gay) would make your children adopt nonsense.

I don’t know!! I hv said what I said!! He is not my future president I know this!! End of story

with all the problems we are facing in this country why on earth should a guy say it's a guy ass that arouses him??

dometome:
it is not because men don't fvck men openly in Africa that Africa is behind

It's just him trying to justify trash, like as if, if Africans accomodate gay people magically we will progress.

Mariangeles:
Let us stay behind THANK YOU!
ONLY GOD SEES THE END FROM THE BEGINNING...
Even nature is against homosexuality 'cause it's a threat to procreation
The Western World would soon know the consequences of their decision to allow perversion and then realize that they were not wise afterall

Is that what nature told you? That's it's a threat to procreation? Did nature ever explain to you too why it happens, while you're at it?

jchioma:


It is against the divine principle of marriage and procreation.

Guy, what is the divine principle of marriage and procreation?
Can you explain the concept?

Shugavee:
that would hv added much more to our problems if it wasn’t!

please tell me how what two consenting adults chose to do in the privacy of their bedroom adds to your own problems? Does fornication between straight unmarried people add to your problem? Because it is a social vice just like homosexuality. That there are actually people who think it is governments job to spend time and resources policing people's bedrooms with the multitude of problems we have in this country tells you everything about our backward mentality in this country.

I hv nothing against what adults choose to do with their ass holes ,,, don’t just try to integrate it to the society!!! Before u know they start advocating for gay scenes in movies!!! If u keep ur shit private, no one will borther you!! That shiiit is beyond wrong!!! That’s abnormal!! But since u hv chosen to be abnormal,, keep it to urself!! N stop advocating for abnormality in the society!!!

you lack understanding. Where did I say I support homosexuality in my post? Did you not see where I said I support Dukes original comment where he clearly said he finds it abnormal but it is not a government matter? That is the right position on the issue. Saying government should not get involved in chasing and prosecuting gay people is not the same as advocating for gay rights. If you hate gays so much then you can take it on yourself to Snoop them out and kill them yourself then deal with whatever consequences but I don't want my government busying themselves with that when we have bigger problems okay?

I believe a sensible man would hv said!! Homosexuallity is a crime as far the law is concerned!!! Why shouldn’t government be involved in chasing them when it is against the law!! From a prosumed presidential candidate,,,U asked me a personal question which doesn’t concern Donald duke in my opinion n I answered!! So u r the one that lacks understanding ,,, we won’t hv this discussion if people ain’t trying to advocate for this rubbish
