Gay Nigerians targeted as 'un-African' - Al Jazeera English

Gay Nigerians targeted as 'un-African' - Al Jazeera English: Meanwhile, Senegal was once touted as one of the most tolerant countries in Africa. But the rhetoric coming from national politicians here too, speaks of preserving "the national integrity" as a way of excluding same-sex relationships from "accepted cultural practices".
"We don't ask the Europeans to be polygamists," President Macky Sall told US President Barack Obama in 2013. "We like polygamy in our country, but we can't impose it in yours. Because the people won't understand it. They won't accept it. It's the same thing."
Corpses of gay people have been exhumed from graveyards across Senegal, with anti-gay activists stating the dead bodies were desecrating cemeteries.
