THE Federal Government on Thursday disagreed with the British Government over the recently passed same-sex marriage bill

as the Senate president, David Mark insisted that the law is irrevocable in spite of the threat by the foreign nations to withdraw assistance to Nigeria on account of that law.

 While the British Government said that Nigerian government should rescind its decision to punish individuals who engage in same sex marriage with 14 years imprisonment, the Federal Government said that the foreign mission should hold whatever assistance or aid to Nigeria tied to such gifts with ulterior motive.

The British Prime Minister, Mr David Camevon, said that Britain would not give any assistance or aid to countries that were opposed to same sex marriage.The British High Commissioner in Nigeria, Mr Andrew Lyod, who held a closed door meeting with the Jigawa State governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, asked the Nigerian government to rescind its decision on punishing individuals involved in same sex marriage, adding that such a law infringes on the fundamental rights of choice and association.

This is just as the Canadian government has also condemned the passage of a bill criminalising same-sex marriage and gay activities in Nigeria by the Senate, saying that the bill, if assented to by President Goodluck Jonathan, would trample upon the fundamental human rights of homosegxwals and gay people.

The Canadian government, in a statement by its Foreign Affairs Minister, John Baird, on Thursday, called on Nigeria to reverse the bill so as to allow all its citizens to enjoy basic rights.

The Canadian government said: “Canada calls on Nigeria to immediately ensure that all its citizens enjoy basic rights. A bill passed by Nigeria’s Senate would, if ratified, disregard basic human rights and fundamental freedoms.”

I thank the Nigerian Senate for taking that decision on the same sex marriage. I also thank the Senate President for his stand.Pertinent question that need to be answered by the the countries are:What is the problem with a woman marrying a man? that same sex marrige would be imposed on Nigeria as fundamental human right? Is that only way of humans associating? Are rights without limits? We are supposed to be living well, what is GB and allies doing with their companies that are defrauding us everyday?
I am against all these foriegn aid that are making us not looking inward and tapping our potentials. Our leader should please, disregard thier comments and move on.

One more kudos to Nigerian authorities for firmly and boldly standing against the so-called devilish same sex marriage. Let the devilish west hold their assistance which is solely meant for dowry in gay and lesbian marriage. WE NEED NOT THEIR ASSISTANCE. Let them hold it off. We don't need them at all, DEVILISH DEMONS.

The British should keep their aid of whatever they have; we Nigeria and Africans have been living on sanction all our life. We Nigerians live by tradition which our ancestors pass to us. Why would you want to change our tradition by force, is this second colonialism or what? Africans have really surfer in the hands of Arabians and westerns, their religion have caused us more harm than good.
Gay , Like the white man claim is a segxwal orientation , but is a lie , gay is segxwal  disease and not an orientation and is contagious , a gay is like someone born daft or dumb , which is always part of satanic practice in most secret society in the western and Arabic world.
British should first start by telling the pope, the Arch Bishop of Canterbury, the chief Imam in Mecca to first legalize gay right in their religion before trying to intimidate a country like Nigeria. We may be poor country but British should not forget that we are determined people and noting can crush or stop the will of determined people. If the British were as good as they claim, they would have force the country to give their people a good governance by giving them a good road ,light, security , go education environment , if they are morally good like they claim(British) , Nigeria Freemason members are behind this atrocity and the so called pastors have kept quiet . David mark you shall live long, because your ancestor are proud of you.

This is wickedness against the weak and the poor in the world today, America as a country is more than 300 years; it was lately that some states in America started passing same sex marriage. some state still haven`t agree to that , so , why would Nigeria which is just 50years ,skip all the important thing in governance which she haven`t achieved as a country, e.g  Security ,good road, health insurance and the rest to jump into gay right? This will increase the sadness of our gods.President Barak Obama, You are American president by birth and you’re an African child by (blood) and blood is thicker than water; you are been guided by the spirit of our African ancestors, so, do not support evil for the sake of world politics, if not you may bring the sadness of your ancestors upon you and their blessing will depart from your house hold.  Please President Obama Let British and the rest of the world know that we African still have a long way to go, gay right is at the bottom list, We need food not gay marriage, we need security, not gay marriage, we not good health care, not gay marriage, because he whom his house is at ablaze don`t go chasing after rat in the build, he goes after his property first because the fire will surely chase consume the rat.

Gay is white man’s tradition passed down to them by their ancestors, today they want to abolish our own tradition and implement their own satanic tradition in African lands. The world, they claim to be the same but the truth is that we are not thesame. I will like to remind the Americans, the Europeans and Arabians this speech once again.

“…until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned: That until there are no longer first-class and second class citizens of any nation; That until the color of a man’s skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes; That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race; That until that day, the dream of lasting peace and world citizenship and the rule of international morality will remain but a fleeting illusion, to be pursued but never attained; And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique and in South Africa in subhuman bondage have been toppled and destroyed; Until bigotry and prejudice and malicious and inhuman self-interest have been replaced by understanding and tolerance and good-will; Until all Africans stand and speak as free beings, equal in the eyes of all men, as they are in the eyes of Heaven; Until that day, the African continent will not know peace. We Africans will fight, if necessary, and we know that we shall win, as we are confident in the victory of good over evil…”
Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, 1963

 British should do their worst, we Nigerians are waiting. Formal Nigeria President OBJ I love you, President Jonathan I love you more; David mark you are my Idol , “the gay law is irrevocable”.  Greek fall as an empire, Egyptian empire  fall, Roman empire also fall, Napoleon fail and so do Alexander  the great, Whatever that have a beginning must surely come to an end. We African should be strong in mind, because when the time comes is not the bullet nor the guns that will win the fight .
