Gambian President Yahya Jammeh on Friday called homosexuality one of the three “biggest threats to human existence.”

In an address to the United Nations General Assembly, Jammeh said that homosexuality, greed and obsession with world domination “are more deadly than all natural disasters put together.”

“Today, after fighting for our freedom and developing our continent we are being prescribed a new religion – Democracy, human rights and good governance,” Jammeh said.

“We know for a fact that all living things need to reproduce for posterity. They become extinct when they can no longer reproduce. Therefore, you will all agree with me that any path in promoting the end of human reproduction must be promoting human extinction.”

“Could this be called promoting human rights when you advocate for a definitive end for human reproduction and procreation? Those who promote homosexuality want to put an end to human existence. It is becoming an epidemic and we Muslims and Africans will fight to end this behavior in our countries. We will never accept this.”

Jammeh has previously claimed that he can cure HIV/AIDS with herbs and bananas.
