Donald Duke on his part made news last year after he signified interest in running for the seat of the president.
In an interview that later went viral, the former Cross River state governor talked about homosexuality saying he would not criminalise the act should he be made president.
In his words;
“I want to talk about gay rights. I don’t understand it because I’m straight. I don’t understand the feelings, emotions, a gay person would have of their sexuality. I don’t understand it but I will not criminalise them. I will ensure they have the protection of the law.
But if they want to exhibit their sexuality, that is an affront to the norms of the society, the current norms.”
Falz, who was one of the anchors of the show Duke came on then went on to ask him what he meant by to ‘exhibit their sexuality’, Duke narrated a scenario of seeing two men kiss when he arrived in New York.
He continued saying; “You can be gay but keep it in your house.”
“On a serious note, society has certain norms. There are certain things you can do in New York, England, and Nigeria that you cannot do in Saudi Arabia. You have got to respect the laws of society. When you are in Rome, behave like the Romans. Don’t swim against the tide.”
On if he would have a gay person in his cabinet, Duke said: “His sexuality is private to him, I don’t want to know. It’s not my business. My business is can he perform the assignment that has been assigned to him?”
