From Nigeria-DELTA State Governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan, commended the Nigeria Anglican Church for opposing gay marriages.
He urged leaders of other religious movements to preach against such practices.
“I urge our religious leaders that if it is possible, it should be a theme for preaching at all times,” he said at Onicha-Olona, Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State during a memorial thanksgiving service in honour of Donald and Juliet Ochei, parents of the Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Victor Ochei.
He said the signing of the anti-gay law by President Goodluck Jonathan was not the end of the “struggle” and urged religious leaders in the country not to relent in the fight against gay relationship and marriage.
According to the Governor, serious pressure was still being mounted on the Federal Government to rescind the law. Some countries in the West have expressed concern at President Goodluck Jonathan assenting to a bill outlawing gay marriages.
