A state visit being planned by Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan to Canada for February has been canceled by the Canadian Government. 

The cancelation happened in the same week it was revealed the President secretly signed a controversial law banning gays, lesbians, and segxwal minorities in Nigeria.

Sources in Abuja told Saharareporters that the Nigerian Ambassador to Canada, Ojo Madueke, was told to inform President Jonathan that the state visit to Canada scheduled for February 13 and 14th 2014 has now been canceled.

Our President has been touring the world since he took up as our leader ' what have we gained from his globetrotting - nothing!

Maybe our government officials may be stopped from travelling to foriegn countries for medical treatment - forcing them to patronise Nigeria hospitals!

Maybe something GOOD will come out of the signing of this anti-gay bill!

Thank you Canada.

 what was he going to do in canada? must he visit all those countries? what are we gaining from those countries sef? 'secretly signed law baning gay marriage' why not openly signed this law? may be they are angry that GEJ secretly signed the law. He would have openly signed it. I beg make them stay in canada, make we remain in Nigeria. nothing de happen.
