After going through the thread of the latest Nigerian transgender Noni Lawal and searching the web for other notable Nigerian transgenders and gays, I'm forced to ask why is this rampant among our South West brothers? Why ain't they contented with who God has made them to be?

Here are notable ones among them

1) Dapo Adaralegbe

Dapo Adaralegbe now known as Stephanie Rose after her transformation was also a man.
After his surgery that transformed him to the female sex, he moved to Spain because of fear of rejection. Back when he was in school, he started using make-up and dressing like a girl, which his fellow classmates found absurd. Dapo, as he was called back then, dropped out from the Obafemi Awolowo University over mounting pressures from the school on his gender identity and reportedly now resides in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Not only is he a transgender woman now, the former law student of O.A.U. has written a book titled ‘Nobody Goes to Heaven Because Nobody Goes to Hell Fire’, where ‘she’ was showing ‘her’ anger towards God and the disappointments she’s had in life. Some of the excerpts from the book were posted on her Facebook page which caused a lot of social media stir.

2) Rizi Xavier Timane

He used to be a woman. Born in Lagos Nigeria. Now living in the US as Rizi Xavier Timane, a man.
In an interview with Ebony, he reflects on his journey to living his truth, and the burden that comes with doing it in a country (US) that doesn’t value ‘Black men’.

Here what he has to say;

I was born in Lagos, Nigeria, and I was assigned the female gender at birth. Both of these facts amounted to one thing: I had no power, no respect, and no privilege, nor would I have much of any of these throughout my life. Add in that I came from a less than wealthy family and was, for all intents and purposes, a lesbian, and I became a truly invisible human being; when I wasn’t being ridiculed or abused, I basically did not exist.

3) Bisi Alimi

Bisi Alimi is a Nigerian gay rights activist, public speaker, blog writer and HIV/LGBT advocate who gained international attention when he became the first Nigerian to come out of the closet on television. Alimi gained notoriety in 2004 when he became the first Nigerian gay man to appear on Nigerian national television as a guest on Funmi Iyanda's show New Dawn with Funmi, a talk show on the NTA. That same year, Bisi had been diagnosed with HIV, and on the show Alimi confirmed his sexuality as a homosexual and asked for social acceptance from the public. His decision to come out of the closet generated both admiration and death threats. Consequently, Alimi was disowned by his family and most of his friends - including some in the gay community - and ejected from his home. On April 12, 2007 he was forced to flee Nigeria following threats to his life. He was granted asylum in 2009 by the UK, where he has been resident since. On December 8, 2014 he was conferred with British citizenship.

4) Roland Jide Macaulay

Rowland Jide Macaulay is the Director of RJMM.CO.UK, also the founding Pastor of House of Rainbow Lagos Nigeria and London United Kingdom. According to himself, he came out as gay after troubled heterosexual life. He got married in 1991 thinking his gayness would be cured. He divorced three years later when he realized his feelings for men could not be dissipated. He ran away to the UK after the persecution became unbearable for him. Jide went on to open the House of Rainbow Fellowship where lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual and inter-sex people are welcomed. He currently resides in the United Kingdom and recently celebrated his birthday.

5) Noni Lawal, the newest transgender

6) Oche Clifford now Ms Sahara

The first Nigeria transgender man, Oche Clifford who is now Miss. Sahhara, who was born a male before becoming a model and singer. She spoke of how happier she is that her dream of becoming a woman was achieved., Crying tears of Joy when she saw her transformation.

I hope someone can tell us why because this is becoming something else

And how is dat your fkking problem? Have they in anyway stop your brain from functioning? You know about them buh dey dont know you exist!!!
If wat they do gives dem happiness then, so be it!! You are not God's second in command to judge them !!!

What do you hope to achieve with this piece of fantastic shit?

SW are liberal people. Live and let live.

Those aforementioned people no disturb your garri or your paycheck.

homosexuality is a normal and natural variation in human sexuality and is not in and of itself a source of negative psychological effects.
Spain,Netherlands,Belgium,Canada Germany,South Africa have thousands of citizens who are gays.
whatever two matured human choose to do sexually is no one business,way better than using underage girls to run baby factories
mynd44 pls move to sexuality section.

Just wondering because you guys are always concerns about what happens among the Igbos rather than yourselves. If Igbos breaking out of Nigeria makes them happy, shouldn't you "One Nigeria" let them be? You are not God's second in command to say One Nigeria is by force.

I remember you, you used to be a SS wannabe that was busted.

How has it been for you claiming SS just to spite the Igbos?

Tenkobos:

Just pointing out to our SW brothers to worry more about themselves and leave Igbos alone to deal with themselves.
