Prayers answered in Nigeria?

Davis Mac-Iyalla and Colin Coward are reporting that anti-gay legislation supported by Archbishop Peter Akinola is in serious trouble.

Davis said:

“Because of the continuing uncertainty, Changing Attitude Nigeria will not celebrate the defeat of the bill publicly until after May 29. We are quietly confident and feeling more happy, but there is still the potential for lobbying in favour of the bill to take place by the Church of Nigeria and for the Government to spring a surprise. However, if the Church was confident about the success of the bill, we think they would be issuing a confident public statement now, which they are not.”
