OTIO!! Human Rights Watch Ask Obama To Force President Buhari To Endorse Gay Marriage

Human Rights Watch has written to US president Barack Obama, ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit to the United States tomorrow, asking him to discuss violence and corruption in Nigeria and make Buhari endorse gay rights as issues Nigeria must address. 

Executive Director, Kenneth Roth, the international rights organization in a letter dated July 15, 2015, told Obama that Buhari’s visit offered an opportunity to re-evaluate US-Nigeria partnership, while asking him to address the three issues and “speak publicly about them.”

Human Rights Watch said, the Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Law, which President Goodluck Jonathan ratified in January 2014, has entrenched discrimination even further. The law according to the human rights group could inhibit the right to health by criminalizing outreach to LGBT groups and therefore urged Obama to call on Buhari to repeal the Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Bill.
