Meet Nigeria's First Cross Dresser In Imo State Named ''area Scatter'' by Palmtvng: 3:28am On Mar 16, 2020
Area Scatter was a crossdresser who roamed the streets of 1970s Eastern Nigeria, playing melodic music with his ornamental thumb piano, singing in a rich, smooth voice and moving his body in an unusual yet fascinating manner.

He was by all means, the first and one of the few Nigerian transvestites to appear in mainstream media.

Legend has it that he was a civil servant in the old days who disappeared into the wilderness at some point during the years of the war, only to re-emerge 7 months and 7 days later, as a beautifully adorned woman.

He claimed that during this period, the gods endowed him with supernatural powers which he used to enhance his musical talent and become more feminine.

In this clip from the documentary “Beats of the Heart: Konkombe”, Area Scatter is seen performing for a local ruler and a crowd who seems to be intrigued but entertained.

Don't know about him being gay, but was a good entertainer, back in the days. He could make a sad story sound good by singing it. He was aired on a popular program known as Ukonu's Club. Sings and is also comedian.

I thought they said it started from the West. He and his kinsman will run their diarrhea mouths to call Bobrisky a bastard and more derogatory names.
They have more of them who scam men and pretend to be prostitutes. They are just not as popular as Bobrisky.

Eeya, he looks beautiful even for a woman, and to think this was early 1970's. Life is truly a mirage because most of those people in that picture, if not all are dead now!

The look on some of the audience's face was priceless when he began entertaining. Very interesting. I wonder if he is still alive?

Perhaps in his next life, he should come into this world as a female. cool
