The 2011 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Pres. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia (with two other women) - the first African woman to be elected president of an African country. In Liberia, the country's Senate this week of 24 July 2012 voted unanimously to approve a constitutional amendment prohibiting marriage between gay couples.
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has previously said she would veto any bill on homosexuality, whether to legalise it or to toughen laws. This petition is to hold her to that promise and if she does not veto the Bill and signs it, that her Nobel Peace Prize of 2011 be revoked and that she has to repay the prize money.
She has to live up to her country's mantra of "The Love Of Liberty Brought Us Here". Liberia of all places should know what Liberty means - and that it includes LGBTI people.
