The Home Affairs Department says it’s focusing on its legal proceedings ahead of a scheduled visit by gay-bashing pastor Stephen Anderson and isn’t prepared to respond to his attack on Minister Malusi Gigaba.

The Arizona based pastor’s homophobic teachings have sparked outrage from members of the LGBTI community, who have called on Home Affairs to ban him from entering the country.

The department says it won’t have a verbal back and forth with Anderson and will instead update South Africans once a decision has been made on his scheduled visit.
