Rawda say they are putting all options on the table including mass protests led by imams

By Lamin Njie

Rawdatul Majalis have said they are putting all options on the table including mass protests if any pro-gay campaign was to be launched in the country.

The prominent Islamic group at the weekend had condemned homosexuality as ‘immoral’, amid a hotting up debate over the lifestyle.

Reports on Thursday however said the group was planning to apply for a permit to stage a protest.

Imam Abubacarr Jabbie told The Fatu Network mass protests led by imams across the country was one of the options to ensure homosexuality is not promoted in The Gambia.

“We have not gotten to that stage (of protest) but we have all options on the table,” he added.
