Wasn't this almost a year ago? I thought some shite was going down.

I actually have a hard time finding articles about it for some reason.

This article from 2013 casts doubt on it, so this story is even older.

quote:

And then just as curiosity about the story had peaked, the Angolan embassy in the US stated categorically that the Angolan government had not banned Islam, or Muslims from practicing their religion.

“The Republic of Angola...it's a country that does not interfere in religion. We have a lot of religions there. It is freedom of religion. We have Catholic, Protestants, Baptists, Muslims and evangelical people,” the statement said.

So y'all pointed out how this is most likely bullshite? Can't find one reputable source on it, or even a non reputable one the last nine months.

It would have been interesting to see how it played out though.
