I believe the hatred against homosexuals came with christianity and islam. Africans were not so concerned about it before. Us Traditional Religionists are generally tolerant of everyone. Also notice the Traditional Ruler's amiable behaviour towards the Area Scatter. He even stood up to applaud his performance. There is a big difference in attitudes today. Also homosexuality was not as rife as before because nowadays it is being marketed. Homosexuals today have also become very outrightly vulgar unlike before. There are faults on both sides.


I am a practitioner of Hausa Traditional Religion (Boori) myself and many of the spirits worshipped and those people possesed by it during religious rituals are known homosexuals. You will find large number of women and homosexuals and all the discriminated sections of society in these rituals as it gives them relief from the fanatical world outside.

There is a propaganda being spread by christians and muslims to say that African culture abhorrs homosexuals.

Why the misinformation & fake news ?.
If you choose to be a practitioner of Bori, its your personal choice, but marketing it to young innocent children is what we are against.
Homosexuality need to demarketed like cigarettes companies.

I'm an ardent student of History, not a traditionalist, if you can help me cite examples of precolonial African men that married fellow men, I would be grateful.
Don't tell me about women that married fellow women, the practice is still in my place today, it's a different story because most times it's done when there is no male child in the family, a woman may decide to marry another woman to bear children for the lineage, in this case the 'wife' is allowed to sleep with other men for the purpose of procreation.

I'm not talking about marriage. A homosexual need not marry.

Who is marketing homosexuality? I just said even homosexuals participate in the rituals. All i mean to say is that it is nothing recent and certainly not abhorred in native African culture.

Even I'm against unnecessary promotion of homosexuality.

I wonder how you came to this conclusion, because even traditional religion abhors it.
Homosexuality has never been an African thing, it's been around here but it has never been something that Africans were proud of, even before the white man came with his religion.


There are a number of historical research papers which dispel the notion that the practice is alien. It appears such practices became abhorrent with the advent of western religion albeit when colonialists went to plunder and pillage the continent.

P.S I am not here to argue about sexuality or the practice. I just wanted to provide some historical context.

You can trace something's prominence in one's culture through language.
The three major languages (and hundreds of others) in Nigeria, not to mention all over the continent, each have a term for crossdressers and gay men; sometimes a combination of both. These languages obviously predate the arrival of the English and christianity by a considerable amount of time.

+ if you are an ardent student of history like you claim then you should know that very little of Africa's pre-colonial history has been preserved in writing. Regardless, I'll point you towards the one I can recall -- King Mwanga II of Uganda -- You do the research and come to your conclusions on your own.


It is true that a lot of what many anecdotally consider to be our lost "primitive" culture was, even if not totally accepting, but considerably more tolerant of what is considered deviant behaviour.

People think of homosexuality as something we imported from the west, alas, it was their intolerance (and religion) that was their gift to us.

All of this shouldn't even matter because I believe people should be prosecuted for harming their fellow man and the natural environment, not for being different.

Prayer Request Against Escalation and Publicising of LGBT Activities in Nigeria

Dear Brothers/Sisters in Christ,

I had a dream over the night, the early hours of Saturday, 26th September, 2020, which suggests that the activities of LGBT (Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgenders) Community might explode and become open in Nigeria.

As you may know LGBT means 'Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgenders. Such activities were what led to destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Kindly let us rise and pray against such in Nigeria.

-1. Let us pray to God to arrest all such agenda and activities in Nigeria.

-2. Let us pray that no gay festival or gay pride will hold in Nigeria.

3. Let us pray that God should deliver all that are into such activities in Nigeria.

Let us enthrone Jesus Christ as the Lord over Nigeria.

Thank you.

Jesus Christ is coming. Let us stay ready in absolute repentance, watchfulness and holiness.

Shalom.

Guy stop confusing the whole thing. He was a "male Cross dresser" and not gay! Igbo traditional institution (which I represent) regard such act (gay) as highly abominable even till date!

Its ok to dress feminine for entertainment sake back in the days, just like the man in the video, but that does not mean in any way that they ever embraced sodomy! Never! It has been, and will continue to be an abomination to the Igbo traditional institution. ALU!

None of those things can happen to me in Jesus name but if any has happened to you, don't worry so much. There is still a solution and deliverance in Jesus Christ. Just humbly seek Him for help.

It is not for you to shout "None of those things can happen to me in Jesus name..." Your children will decide their sexuality, and either shield it from you while living a life of hypocrisy under your roof until they leave your home.

These things happen. It's a matter of time. Lmao, Cheers.
