Twenty six female same gender love makers were arrested on charges of illegal indecent activity after they were allegedly caught red handed having engaging in the act at a pub, Nigerian police said.
Delta State Police said that they raided the pub located on Awai Road, after receiving intelligence about the criminal activity.
A spokesperson for the police confirmed that the 26 suspects were arrested after police officers observed them making love with one another. All of the suspects were not wearing any clothes.
During questioning, the suspects confessed to their crimes, and said that it was their way of earning a living. According to the police investigation, the facility was made to look like an ordinary pub in order to avoid suspicion by the public.
Security guards were placed at the entrance to collect fees of those willing to be exposed to the illicit same gender activities. Teen girls from neighboring communities and states visited the pub to smoke, drink and engage in indecent acts.
The public expressed their outrage after learning about the arrests. “The Nigeria Police Force should use their resources for the safety of our community, to hunt down kidnappers and robbers rather than chasing minority gays and lesbians on the streets,” Shina said.
“Nigeria has a bigger problem than same gender love makers. Please use your time and resources to smoke out the Boko Haram terrorists,” Total said
