A lot of anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment in Africa is being fostered by white American evangelicals. Case in point: Uganda, which is 82% Christian, more than the US. 

The US connection to Uganda’s ‘kill the gays’ bill - Washington Post

A group of Ugandi LGBTQ+ activists tried to sue Scott Lively, the American pastor largely responsible for the “kill the gays” law. Their suit was dismissed because the court lacked jurisdiction to hear the cass, but the judge acknowledged that they had a legitimate complaint.

Sexual Minorities Uganda v. Lively, No. 17-1593 (1st Cir. 2018)

But Uganda is mostly Catholic right? As far as I know American evangelicals are not Catholic. I might be wrong. Just sounds weird to think 'a lot' is due to Americans in an East African country.
