Nigerian Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Oppression

Published by L.I.F.E. Association on Feb 08, 2007

We, the undersigned, are appalled by the oppressive and cruel treatment this bill will invite. This bill is a threat to human rights of everyone everywhere. This bill will negatively impact the fight against HIV/AIDS.

This bill supports any individual who chooses to torture or be cruel to GLBT people, their family, friends, and allies. This proposed legislation flies in the face of Nigeria’s obligations to the rights, and well-being, of its people. Under international human rights law, the Federal Republic of Nigeria has the obligation to promote and protect the human rights of its population, without distinction of any kind. We ask that you take action to make sure that this bill does not pass.
