Homosexuality is a crime against humanity even on logical sense. A man and a woman had to meet to pro create. If a man marries anoda man and a woman does dsame then what happens to the next subsequent generations to come, u dont expect children to appear on earth just like that . I wonder where d rights of unborn children are kept

lets be real here for once & stop deceiving ourselves; No Nigerian Culture which of course has a traditional basis, that is a huge part of our day to day lives, accepts or will be lenient with "Homosexuality", it is seen as a Taboo/Abomination... its like saying going to an Arab country & publicly display affection to your wife as a man, of course you are going to get fined despite the fact that the woman is your wife, their cultural background frowns at such practice & its accepted that way without complaints.
So if Gay men dont feel comfortable in Nigeria why dont they relocate to the western zone which has a background that supports such practice, period... otherwise as a gay man if you cant beat 'em, U join em
As for Funmi Inyanda, why did she delve into a case/story that would make her a public enemy? knowing fully well the kind of Country she comes from

Absolutely loved New Dawn with Funmi Iyanda as a kid then.....she was such an inspiration......since then can't pinpoint any indigenous talk show that was as cool as that, sadly ours is a country where vitriolic homophobia thrives

Why can't these people quietly do their thing? Why must you disgust everyone with homosexuality. Funmi was foolish for interviewing him. Did she run out of ideas for her show or what?

Anti-homosexuality is one thing both christians and muslims in this country agree on. Considering the fact that NTA is a government property- funded by tax payers money- Funmi messed up big time.

Uteghe :
For the first time NTA has made me proud. Relevant authorities should go a step further by arresting the gay dude and putting him on trial. After all,there's an anti-gay law in this country. The Funmi Iyanda girl should be tried as accomplice or accessory after the fact. Gay sex is a sub-animal tendency and should be crushed with all vehemence.
Just listen to yourself.
You sound very very blind. You think we are in Iran or what?

AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE?? GAY OR STRAIGHT, LIFE IS NOTHING BUT A JOURNEY......LIFE IS EPHEMERAL, SO WHY MAKE LIFE MISERABLE FOR OTHERS WHO HAVE A DIFFERENT SEXUAL ORIENTATION FROM WHAT SOCIETY ACCEPTS AS THE NORM? WHILE I PERSONALLY FIND HOMOSEXUAL ACTS AS 'DISGUSTING', BUT IT'S ONLY BECAUSE I GREW UP LEARNING THAT ALL NORMAL SEXUAL ACTS IS ONLY PERMISSIBLE BETWEEN THE OPPOSITE SEX. JUST LIKE RELIGION, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A GOD AND I SHOULD LIVE MY LIFE ACCORDING TO HIS COMMANDS SO MY SOUL MIGHT HAVE ETERNAL REST WHEN I DIE. BUT INHERENTLY AS A HUMAN BEING (EVEN WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD), I KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG BECAUSE I HAVE A "CONSCIENCE". AND MY CONSCIENCE TELLS ME TO TREAT OTHERS EXACTLY HOW I WANT TO BE TREATED.

To be honest, I'd say she was lucky to had walked off with a light punishment, it was just her show that was cancelled.

You've got to think of the kind of country you live in before trying to act western, you not the next Oprah, you not the next Ellen, you're not the next tyra, don't try to act like one. Respect the views the masses, stop trying to be a rebel, bringing a gay man unto your show & giving him a platform to spread his perversion, is a sure way to stir up controversy, & incite public anger. Putting a mic in front of a homosexual, is like putting a mic in front of a paedophile or a mad man.

I'd say she was lucky, because if i had the power to decide her punishment, I'd have had her arrested & tried as an antagonist of the state or confined to a mental institution.
