As reactions trailed the recent signing into law of the prohibition of same sex relationships in Nigeria, the United States government is one country that has not hidden her reservations of the law. Below is a message released by the U.S Embassy Abuja, Nigeria:
"Since the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act was signed, we have
expressed concern as a friend of Nigeria that it might be used by some to
justify violence against Nigerians based on their sexual orientation. Recent
attacks in Abuja deepen our concern on this front. We hope that all Nigerians
can agree that discrimination and violence against any fellow Nigerian is
never justified".
