A homosexual group in Nigeria known as The Right Defense has expressed its displeasure over how their members have been harassed and humiliated in recent times across Nigeria.
And according to the statement they released last Tuesday, they are not happy with the Nigerian government.
The group whose members do not use their full names said because of arrests of its members by policemen and intimidation by the government it decided to speak up.
To express feelings towards defending human rights for all Nigerian citizens without discrimination of any sort “as it concerns the homosexuality and transgender saga in Nigeria."
In the statement titled: “Same sex prohibition: Group flays government on anti-citizen laws and abuse of human rights”, the group said:
“Everyone should have the liberty to life and choice of living as endorsed by the United Nations on universal declaration for freedom of expression and choice for all nationalities. [Our] members have been declared wanted by the police.
Amongst many others was the case of Mr I.O. Ibrahim, whose home and family were attacked and raided by unidentified security agents, thugs and still declared wanted by the agents some months ago He is currently living in abroad and struggling for human rights and egalitarian society globally,”The group also condemned “the dastardly act perpetrated by group of youths who molestated and intimidated four Nigerians in Ekwe village of Njaba LGA, Imo State.”
They were attacked, stripped and paraded across the cities over accusation of indecent practices- homosexuality.
The group said instead of wasting time and energy on homosexuals, the Nigerian government should rather provide the dividends of democracy and accountability to its citizens.
