“Angola, an African Nation banned Islam and is destroying mosques”
What FACTLY found
There are no recent news reports or credible sources confirming a ban on Islam or the destruction of mosques. This same claim has been in circulation since 2013. The government of Angola, in the past, clarified that there is no ban on Islam. However, it has also been clarified that certain mosques were destroyed or closed in the past because they were built without government permission
