Shaibu Mohammed: Declared wanted by the Zongo Muslim Communities.

Residents of Zongo communities in Ghana have in recent times intensified their hate against the practice of same-sex relationships and many of the residents have been calling for attacks on gays and lesbians in the Zongos.

The Muslims, who predominantly populate the Zongos, perceive same-sex relationships as evil, since such relationships are abhorred by the teachings of the Holy Quran.

Administering severe punishment to gays and lesbians is considered as a holy endeavor every Muslim should not shy away from undertaking.

One cleric,  Sheikh Abu Hamdan , said “Allah gets annoyed when males engage in sexual encounter and such disgusting encounter causes earthquake”.

According to him the destruction of the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by Allah was as the result of homosexuality and he called for a holy war against gays and lesbians in the country, particularly in Muslim dominated suburbs.

“Should we allow such a shame to continue in our communities against our holy teachings?” he asked. He answered that “certainly no,and we are very happy to chase away such idiots from our Zongo communities”.

Such incitement by the voices in Zongo communities led to the attack of Hajia Amina Mohammed, the sister  of Shaibu Mohammed . They accused Hajia ,the sister  of Shaibu Mohammed  for harboring the sexual practice of her brother at their late father’s house, and have warned the sister  to kill  Shaibu  should they locate him .

Many gays in Zongo communities notable Adamu Muftawu, Abdul Mujeeb Hakeem, Ramdan Abdulai, Frederick Acquah Aguuta , Habib Karim and others , who were afraid to disclose their sexual preferences for fear of attacks, have since left their known places of abodes with their current whereabouts unknown.

Youth of such Muslim communities are known to have inaugurated special task force to fight what they commonly describe as the importation of the “whiteman’s culture”.
