Speaker Among fires back US For Imposing A Visa Ban on 348 MPS for passing the Anti-Homosexuality Act.

The Speaker of the Parliament of Uganda, Rt.Hon. Anita Among  has fired back at the United States for imposing a visa ban on 348 MPs who supported the Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023, revealing that her visa request was also rejected, but she doesn’t regret backing the controversial law.

"We don’t regret passing this law, and I want to thank the President for really assenting to this law. I am proud and happy with what the President did. We will continue protecting the family, protecting the rights of our children and our country and we will not live in handouts. My visa was cancelled, have I died? As I have said, so long as you don’t cancel the visa to Bukedea and Buyende, I have my home. I will go there freely," said Among.        

The Speaker’s remarks were in response to recent pronouncement by United States Gov't that imposed visa ban and travel restrictions on 348 MPs and their immediate family members, for voting in favour of the Anti-Homosexuality Act.

"The blacklist that they are talking about, don’t care don’t worry about that, you have all that you need in this country. So long as your kids aren’t being sodomised, this business of saying you are going to use people’s children must stop," added Among
