The Delta State Police Command said its officers arrested over 100 suspected gay’s carrying out a wedding ceremony in a hotel in Delta state.

Delta State Police disclosed this on its official X page, (formerly known as Twitter) on Tuesday, saying it would parade the suspects shortly.

“Delta State Command has arrested over a hundred gay suspects in a hotel carrying out a gay wedding ceremony. We will be going live shortly on Facebook to parade the said suspects.”

Recalls that in January 2014, former President Goodluck Jonathan enacted Nigeria’s anti-gay law, which imposes a 14-year prison term for anybody found guilty of having intercourse with members of the same sex.

In 2018, the police in the state paraded 57 men for alleged homosexual activities at Kelly Ann hotel in Egbeda.

Earlier in December 2020, the Lagos State Police Command arrested 10 individuals suspected of homosexual activities in a brothel located in the Okota area of the state.
