In an epic speech lasting an hour and half the 90 year old leader said, “”Let Europe keep their homosexual nonsense there and not cross over with it here.”

The president said any foreign diplomat found to be promoting homosexuality would be deported before the sun set.

“We did not fight for this Zimbabwe so it can be a homosexual territory. We will never have that here and if there are any diplomats, who will talk of any homosexuality, just tell me. We will kick them out of the country without any excuse. We won’t even listen. Any signal that they are homosexual we kick them out of the country before sunset.” Mugabe declared.

The President went on to argue that gay rights were not part of human rights, as what homosexuals did was inhuman before quoting sections of the bible.

President Mugabe has a long history of making anti-gay statements and most notably previously compared LGBT people to dogs and  pigs. Homosexuality is illegal in the country.
