Ugandan Government Vows To Crack-down Gay Pride Activities

KAMPALA, Uganda –  Uganda’s government says it “will continue to suppress” the Gay pride / public activities of homosexuals it accuses of trying to promote themselves.[9]

Simon Lokodo, a ugandan minister in charge of ethics and integrity,[4] told reporters Monday that gay pride activities are being organized “with the influence of some foreign forces” he didn’t name.

Ugandan police last week arrested about 20 people attending a gay pride event at a nightclub in the capital, Kampala.[2] They were questioned and released hours later.[1]

Apparantly, Gay pride activities are not allowed in the country!

Homosexuality is criminalized in Uganda under a colonial-era law that proscribes sex acts “against the order of nature.” Gay leaders say the LGBTI community faces discrimination, violence and extortion.[10]

Lokodo says the government is developing a program to “rehabilitate” LGBTI members.[5]
