President Muhammadu Buhari has rejected the notion of gay marriage, his spokesperson says.
Buhari’s media aide, Femi Adesina stated that the president rejected the issue ‘point blank.’

US Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Linda Thomas-Greenfield had said during a live-web chat with journalists on July 13 that the country would compel Nigeria to recognize same sex unions.
