With Nigeria just having enacted a sweeping anti-LGBT law and similar legislation pending in Uganda, Joaquim Chissano, the former president of Mozambique, has called on African leaders to protect sexual and reproductive rights in an "Open Letter to African Leaders" published Tuesday by The Africa Report.

[Letter saying:] We can no longer afford to discriminate against people on the basis of age, sex, ethnicity, migrant status, sexual orientation and gender identity, or any other basis – we need to unleash the full potential of everyone.
