Anti-gay law: Canadian Govt cancels President Jonathan’s state visit

A state visit being planned by Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan to Canada for February has been canceled by the Canadian Government.

The cancellation happened in the same week it was
revealed the President secretly signed a controversial law
banning gays, lesbians, and sexual minorities in Nigeria.

Sources in Abuja told Saharareporters that the Nigerian
Ambassador to Canada, Ojo Madueke, was told to inform
President Jonathan that the state visit to Canada scheduled
for February 13 and 14th 2014 has now been canceled.
