Must read

Repeat offenders found guilty of homosεxuality will now face life imprisonment in Uganda after the country’s lawmakers overwhelmingly decided to pass a bill last Friday to put a stop to this kind of “evil” behavior.

After flying through the country’s parliament, the bill will now go on to be signed into law by President Yoweri Museveni.

David Bahati, member of the Ugandan parliament, who introduced the new bill, said that it was a great victory for the people of Ugandain their fight against this evil that has invaded their country.

Bahati continued that the original proposal had included the death penalty for repeat offenders of this vile act of homosεxuality and those who participated in these disgusting acts with minors.

The MP for Ndorwa West and member of the National Resistance Movement went on to say “Because we are a God-fearing nation, we value life in a holistic way. It is because of those values that members of parliament passed this bill regardless of what the outside world thinks.”

The bill has been struggling to get support in the Ugandan parliament since it was first introduced in 2009. Even though the bill has been condemned by most of the Western World, including President Obama who called it “odious,” Ugandan lawmakers have finally come to a majority agreement on its passing.

According to homosεxual rights activists, Ugandan’s are fiercely homophobic and lesbians have even been raped in an attempt to correct their unnatural behavior. They added that gays and lesbians are frequently the victim of violence or threats.

The new bill also makes it illegal to promote homosεxuality in any way and gay rights groups will now face stiff penalties should they decide to hold meetings.

The Ugandan parliament has also recently passed a law banning pornography in the country. The anti-pornography law also includes enticing performances of any kind that are intended to disrupt the moral standards of the country, as well as banning the showing of anything that can be regarded as sεxual parts, such as breasts, thighs and bμttocks.
