Archbishop Of Jos Opposes Discrimination Against Gay People – See What He Had To Say!

The Archbishop of Jos, Ignatius Kaigama has
spoken out against the unfair treatment of gay
people in Nigeria, stating that the Nigerian
Catholic Church is opposed to discrimination
against people because of sexual orientation.Speaking on Nigeria’s adoption of the law that
stipulates a 14-year sentences for anyone
entering a same-sex union or displaying
affection publicly, he said that the only part of
the law that the Catholic Church supports is
that marriage is between a man and a woman.
“We are not supporting the criminalization of
people with different sexual orientations. We
would defend any person with homosexual
orientation who is being harassed, who is being
imprisoned, who is being punished…
The Government may want to punish them –
we don’t. In fact we will tell the Government to
stop punishing those with different
orientations,” he said.
