Islamic scholar seeks death penalty for homosexuals

Says they are worse than murderers and deserve more than capital punishment
Malam Abdulkadir Apaokagi, an Abuja-based Islamic scholar, on Sunday called for the imposition of the death penalty on homosexuals in Nigeria.

Apaokagi, in a sermon preached at the weekly prayer session of Nasrul–lahi-L-Fatih Society of Nigeria (NASFAT), said gays in Nigeria were perverts who did not deserve to co-exist with right thinking and decent people.
According to him, they are worse than murderers and deserve stiffer penalties than those accused of killing fellow human beings.
“Homosexuality and lesbianism are just too dirty in the sight of Allah, those who engage in them deserve more than capital punishment, he said. “When they are killed, their corpse should also be mistreated.”
Apaokagi, who is the deputy chief Imam at the Abuja branch of NASFAT, said in his lecture entitled: “The position of Islam on gay marriage”, that gay people were mentally unstable and could bring severe instability to the society in which they lived.
“None of them can pass a psychiatric test, because they are not normal,” he said.
The scholar's sermon came against the background of a recent law passed by the Senate banning same-sex marriage and public display of affection by gays in Nigeria and stipulating a 14-year jail term for violators.
Quoting from the Quran, Apaokagi hailed the Senate for passing the law, saying that Allah decreed marriages only between members of the opposite sex. Read the rest on:
