The Chief Superintendent of Police zone 2, Dolapo Badmus has a few hours ago, taken to her social media page, to once more remind all “homosexuals” in Nigeria of the laws of the land that prohibits Homosexuality, as she asked those inclined to such behaviour, to please leave the country before it is too late for them.
Clearly, Dolapo Badmus and the Police have also been monitoring events on and off social media for her to put out this post…and she has come under serious bashing for her post on Instagram.
Badmus put out this post issuing the warning, saying:
“If you are homosexually inclined, Nigeria is not a place for you.
There is a law (same-sex Prohibition Act) here that criminalizes homosexual clubs, associations and organizations with penalties of up to 14-years in jail.
So, if you are homosexual in nature, leave the country or face prosecution.
But before you say does these matter?! Kindly note that anything against the law of the land is criminal and all crimes will be punished accordingly no matter how small you think it is.
The law says “A Person who registers, operates or participates in gay clubs, societies or organisations, directly or indirectly makes a public show of same-sex amorous relationship in Nigeria commits an offense and is liable on conviction to a term of 10-years.
Anyone convicted of entering into a same-sex marriage contract or civil union faces up to 14-years imprisonment.
All LGBT candidates in Nigeria should beware.” she said
