In some African countries, fundie preachers – styled after American tent revivalists – are almost everywhere to the point of omnipresent as evidenced by the large number of banners for local pastors running their own tentpole ministries. Their influence is so enormous that they even warp government policies, as in the case of Uganda and entrenched anti-homosexuality panics.
So this is a change. Like people should have the right to have peaceful uninterrupted conveyance.
Same with Ghana. They’ve had a Nazi-style anti-LGBTQI bill they’ve been kicking around for years, likely brought directly to them by fundie US preachers. They once buried a skate park because it “was bringing the gays to children.” Seriously.
its deeper than that, american christian evangelical groups have been going to african countries pushing evangelical legislations to the countries in africa, hence where there are so many anti-lgbtq+ legislations.
You see that across levels of development. There are giant glowing banners in Johannesburg that are rather distracting when driving at night. Not sure how many thousands are in those megachurches.

Yeah, for those groups Africa is their test lab for which to create their own armies for the supposed upcoming endtimes.
