Aderonke Apata started this petition that garnered over 70,000 signatures and still counting to Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari asking him to repeal the same-sex marriage bill in Nigeria.
Nigeria is one of the 76 countries that criminalise homosexuality with the harshest penalties of up to 14 years imprisonment and death in the northern parts of the country.
Since this toxic law was passed in 2014, suspected LGBTI people face homelessness, evictions, public whipping, mob attacks, loss of employments, denial to access healthcare services which is a critical situation especially for people with HIV.
This insidious law is against the articles 42 of Nigerian constitution, and 2, 3 and 5 of African Human Rights Charter and other international equality laws.
