- All information is correct, just adding sources "Same-sex marriage has been constitutionally banned since 2005, with the Anti-Homosexuality Bill of 2023 prescribing a 10-year prison sentence for anyone who enters a same-sex marriage."
- Other "Entry is wrong. Entry states that Same-Sex Marridge is unrconized "In all of Africa" when I know for a fact that South Africa has legalized Same-Sex Marridge."
- Status is not correct "Same sex marriage is actually recognized in south africa"
- Status is not correct
