President Jonathan Pardons Serial Homosexual Major Bello Magaji.

President Goodluck Jonathan has granted pardon to former Major Bello Magaji, who was convicted and sentenced to five years jail term for sodomy by a military court in 1996.
Magaji whose reasons for making the list remains puzzling, was one of about a dozen convicts that earned Jonathan’s pardon Tuesday after a Council of State meeting in Abuja along with the president’s convicted former boss, Mr DSP Alamieyeseigha, a one-time governor in Bayelsa state where the president served as his deputy.
Magaji, a former military police officer attached to the Lagos Garrison Command, was convicted for serial homosexual intercourse with four students of the Army Cantonment Boys Secondary School in Ojo Cantonment in Lagos, according to court records obtained by PREMIUM TIMES.
The documents spoke of how Magaji intoxicated the young men, all from poor background, with alcohol, making them dizzy and then forcing them to have homosexual intercourse. He would then offer them token financial inducement to meet family obligations.
Magaji’s pardon, coming at a time that legislative and religious institutions in the country are bracing for a stormy confrontation with the local and international gay and lesbian communities is bound to shock many observers of the Jonathan presidency
