7. Nigeria

Up next in our list of countries that will kill you for being gay is Nigeria, that is the Federal Republic which means it’s divided into smaller entities. Since Nigeria is roughly 60% Christian and 40% Muslim (according to some reports), entities are organized in such way that they’re either vastly Christian or overly Muslim. Those states that are mostly inhabited by the Muslims, enforce some sort of the Sharia Law (mostly northern part of the country). Of course, we already know what the sentence for same-sex activities is according to Sharia. Sadly, Nigeria implements that law, although no verified death sentences on LGBT members have been verified in recent years.
