Same-sex marriage is not legal in Gabon in the sense that it cannot be legally performed and it is not recognized by the government. It is not "illegal" however in the sense that it is punishable under the penal code. Reportedly, same-sex sexual activity has never been illegal in Gabon.

No. In fact, homosexual activity is illegal in Angola. (Penal Code of September 16, 1886) Articles 70 and 71 also state that habitual offenders of that law are to be sent to a labor camp.

Despite the prohibition, a American lesbian couple purportedly married in Angola on December 30, 2011, although the marriage is not legally recognized. There was also another purported same-sex commitment ceremony between Aleksander Gregorio ("Chano") and Bruno ("Bruna") on May 6, 2005.
