Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Patriotic Front (PF) presidential candidate, Brian Mundubile, has called on women and the Church to speak out against movements promoting homosexuality in Zambia. Speaking during a church service at the United Church of Zambia Galilee Congregation in Kamanga Township on Sunday, Mundubile described such practices as abominable and incompatible with Zambian culture and Christian values.<\/p>\n

Mundubile urged women with capacity and influence to rise to the occasion and reject any attempts to promote homosexuality. He called on the Church to be strong and tell the government that the Zambian people do not want to see such a taboo become normalized in their society.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are seeing things in which people have risen and that they want to bring culture which is un-Zambian. Women of capacity and influence must rise to the occasion and say no to these abominable acts,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mundubile emphasized the important role that women play in society, calling on them to be prayer warriors for the nation and to continue impacting society in positive ways.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet women be prayer warriors, not only for the Church and families but for the nation. May our women continue to be a symbol of love and peace,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Homosexuality remains a highly controversial issue in Zambia, with many religious leaders and conservative politicians condemning it as a violation of traditional values and morality. The country\u2019s Penal Code criminalizes homosexuality, and those found guilty can face up to 14 years in prison.<\/p>\n

Mundubile\u2019s remarks are likely to resonate with many Zambians who hold similar views on homosexuality. However, they have also sparked criticism from human rights activists who argue that all individuals should have the right to love who they choose without fear of discrimination or persecution.<\/p>\n
