I think that what started as a small threat to Uganda is sparkling a wave of solidarity between African countries,after Uganda came Congo,Nigeria,zimbabwe lastly Ethiopia is going to pass anti-gay laws.

After the African Union calling for the boycott of the AU-EU meeting over boycott of few african countries (Western Sahara) and few african leaders (Mugabe,Al Basheer)
