whizzler: There's also a law against theft, yet movies like ocean's eleven glamorize it. Should the writers be sent to jail for that? What's a story without controversy? 5 Likes 1 Share |

phlamesG: Please learn to think before rebuking others. The author may deny promoting faggotry but there is a wide chasm between what the pervert author says and what his book is intended to accomplish. 2 Likes |

Reminds me of last day at forcados, it has lesbian sorta theme. Kinda love the book though. As for this book, it's necessary, Lagos is the center of sex in Nigeria. Nigerians should stop being hypocritical. 2 Likes |

Because he writes a book on gay people doesn't make him gay. Whether we like it or not, there are gay men all over Nigeria. Let's stop deceiving ourselves. There have been gay people in Nigeria for decades, so I'm wondering why this sudden interest in them. Dandaudus have been there since forever 2 Likes |

Like it or not, homosexuality is here to stay. They have started infusing it into animated movies. I watched Angry Birds movie yesternight and couldn't believe most of the thungs I heard or saw. Plenty sexual innuendos and reference to homosexuality. I am not homophobic but I feel it is high time these people realize they have to stop shoving their lifestyle in our faces. 1 Like |

Klinee: You need to get a life. Regarding who's the fuull, the joke's on you. Because someone writes on ritualism, does that make him one? Talking of evil acts, have you tried stopping those that steal money from public coffers, those that fornicate and commit adultery, the paedophiles and prostitutes in your environment? Senseless thing. You better go and take your psychotropic medicines and stop barking like a rabid dog. Apparently your exorcism sessions have not worked. 4 Likes 1 Share |

LeFreakSoChic: So you want people to hide because you don't like seeing them? I'm sorry, but that's not how human rights work. That's just like a racist white person saying he's ok with black people but they should cover their faces to hide their skin colour. That's just like a Muslim saying he's ok with Christians but they shouldn't hold bibles or carry rosaries in public. I know we've been mentally conditioned on this region to reject people who are different and you at least seem to be on the right track, but if we truly are free, then expression shouldn't be a problem whether you agree with such views or not. 4 Likes |

CoolUsername: I cannot afford to be homophobic because I have friend who's gay and I love him with all my heart. He's nice, down to earth, hardworking. He's almost perfect but what I want to point out is that despite all these endearing attributes, he's still hated. Why? Because his lifestyle is unacceptable in this part of the world. What happened to those days when they used to be secretive about it? It's almost like the anti gay bill unleashed them instead of sending them into hiding. It is well anyway. I can almost relate with their woes because I share my friend's unending string. 1 Like |

hakim92:Are you implying writing on a particular subject let say,a writer who writes about the increasingly rate of pregnancy amongst teenage girls is actually promoting unsafe sex in teenage girls?Technically to you writing on a particular subject matter is synonymous to promoting it. Ba? For your information there is a discrepancy between depicting the day to day sexual life of a society in a literary work and advocating for it. @ topic lemme recover from udala first, before reading this. Lgbt books can be emotionally crippling. 3 Likes |

LeFreakSoChic: Well, people have different reactions to oppression. It would be safer for them to remain hidden but it won't help to effect any positive change. I don't know how long it would take for people to understand that their personal opinions have no bearing on fact. And the fact is that several societies have thrived with gays having equal rights. 1 Like |

Klinee: Mad man. Go and take your medications. I wonder how you escaped from Yabaleft.. I know you're a closet gay, and the author's book strikes close to home. That's why its so personal to you. Better come out once and for all, not everyone in Nigeria is judgemental. You will get some support, and that might even help you come out of your perpetual mad state. 2 Likes |
