'Let's be decent and keep our mouths shut' - Mabuza refuses to condemn anti-gay stance of African states

Brauteseth also spoke about how it was not just the gay community that was targeted, but heterosexual allies - “like myself” - are imprisoned for up to 10 years in some countries for assisting a homosexual friend.

Mabuza declined, saying that while Brauteseth's position on the matter was more or less similar to his, it was not that easy to condemn other countries. He said there were multilateral platforms like the African Union and Southern African Development Community where such matters could be discussed.

Besides their sovereignty there is international relations, there is human life involved in the sentences. How about sensitizing international bodies like UN and our own AU to pressure countries which do not respect human life to do so, just like in the 1970's and 80's.DDMabuza
