PRESIDENT EDGAR CHAGWA LUNGU has frowned upon anyone who calls Zambia primitive for refusing to accept gay rights which he said was not the order of nature adding that it is unbiblical.
“We are saying no to homosexuality, why should you be saying we are only going to be civilized if we allow it, are you saying we are very primitive because we are frowning upon homosexuality?” President Lungu asked Sky News Reporter Alex Crowford yesterday.
President Lungu went on to observe the order of nature, “Even animals do not do it so why should we be forced to do it because we want to be seen to be smart, to be seen to be civilized and advanced.”
A noise on homosexuality arose when a judge sentenced two gentlemen to fifteen years imprisonment for crime against the order of nature.
