Human rights activist John Nakuta has stated that the anti-gay marriage law signed by President Nangolo Mbumba is discriminatory and violates the Constitution's equality clause. Nakuta argues that the law seeks to circumvent the 2023 Supreme Court ruling, which mandates that same-sex marriages legally conducted abroad must be recognized by the Namibian government. He believes this law can be contested in court.
Uganda’s Constitutional Court is hearing a case challenging the anti-homosexuality law that came into effect in May. The law imposes severe punishments on those convicted of same-sex acts including the death penalty for some crimes. According to the BBC, it is being challenged by a group of both individuals and human rights organisations who argue that it violates constitutional rights and freedoms.
