Senator Phillip Aduda has pledged to work towards frustrating the
passage of any bill that would encourage same sex marriage in the
country.
Aduda said this, weekend, at the maiden awards ceremony and launch
of N100 million projects fund by Abuja chapter of women’s wing of
Christian Association of Nigeria, WOWICAN.
Aduda, who was represented by Zephaniah Jisalo, a member of the
House of Representatives, vowed to lobby his colleagues in the National
Assembly to prevent the bill from sailing through if it was presented.
At the event, the Chairperson of Abuja chapter of WOWICAN, Mrs Philo
Uche, stated that her group was opposed to the idea, adding that the
group would frustrate the passage of any law that would legalise same
sex marriage in the country.
She said: “We are 100 per cent against same sex marriage; and we
would fight it to the last. This is because it is against the word of
God as contained in the Holy Bible.”
She stated that her group had gone to the National Assembly to lobby
against the passage of any law that would support the legalization of
homosexuality or anything associated with it.
On the awards, she said that the FCT chapter of WOWICAN had
instituted it to recognize Nigerians who had touched the lives of
ordinary people in the country.
Uche said: “What we are saying through these awards to those who
have received them is that they should continue with the good work they
are doing.”
Nice move by our women
