Bishops of the Owerri Catholic Ecclesiastical Province have commended President Goodluck Jonathan for ignoring threats from Western nations and signed the Anti-Same s*x Bill into law.
The commendation was part of the 10-point communique issued after their first plenary meeting for 2014, held at the Pastoral Centre, Owerri, and signed by the Chairman and Secretary, His Grace, Dr. Anthony J.V. Obinna and Most Rev. Dr. Augustine T. Ukwuoma of Orlu Diocese, respectively.
“We commend the collaborative effort of Mr. President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, and the National Assembly for signing into law the Bill prohibiting same-s*x union in Nigeria”, the bishops stated.
While describing themselves as “servants and custodians of God’s laws”, the Catholic Bishops unequivocally stated that “marriage is sacred union between a man and woman”.
They expressed sympathy with people with homosexual tendencies, adding that being a homosexual is moral perversion. [Vanguard]
