  • Pope slams gay marriage
  • 'Why do gays want to marry?'
  • Gays 'must have full rights'
  • 30 million gays will marry
  • Keiskammahoek - The chairman of the National House of Traditional Leaders on Saturday said the world could be coming to an end because gay relationships could not produce offspring.

    At the anointment of Inkosi Npulana of Amazizi at Keiskammahoek in the Eastern Cape, Inkosi Mpiyezintombi Mzimela said he hoped Npulana would have people to lead "because at the end of the day we might run out of followers".

    "You cannot be sure these days because men have the right to sleep with other men," he said.

    "Ours have the right to sleep with other women."

    He called on traditional leaders and the people of Amazizi to come out with their standpoint on homosexuality.

    Mzimela also criticised what children were exposed to on television.

    "Today parents are afraid to watch television with their children because all we see day and night is sex."

    He said the African system had schools responsible for sex education.

    "The 'amaqhikiza'... is a system where older girls mentor young girls to ensure sexual abstinence until girls are ready to take full control of their affairs.

    "Initiation schools both for boys and girls were also useful and promoting interdependence and not the nonsense we see these days.

    "It is time to put an end to this and say enough is enough."
