GOVERNMENT CONDEMN PROTEST BY MEMBERS OF SISTAH SISTAH ORGANISATION

Government says the recently held march to promote homosexuality by Sistah Sistah Foundation is un-Zambian and will not be condoned in the country.

Minister of Information and Chief Government Spokesperson Chushi Kasanda says it is shocking that the organization which applied for a police permit to demonstrate against the increasing cases of Gender Based Violence against women and girls ended up promoting gay rights.

Ms Kasanda says Zambia remains a Christian nation and any act of homosexuality has no place in the country. She is confident that the police will handle the issue professionally.

And Pentecostal Assemblies of God General Secretary, Reverend Brian Bwalya has condemned the match that took place on Saturday in which a gay agenda was revealed.

Reverend Bwalya said it is highly deceitful for the organizers to purport that the march was about a different cause but allow it be hijacked by gay activists and elements.

Reverend Bwalya is shocked that the match was supervised and policed by the Zambia Police Officers who allowed it to descend into illegalities.

He has wondered why the Police did not stop the march after it descended into misconduct and vulgar language being sung and the display of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Queer material.

And Citizen First President Harry Kalaba has called on the church to stand up and speak out against this vice as there is no room for homosexuality in this country.
