Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi says colonialism ruined same-sex unions in Africa

Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi has said that same-sex unions were not against any law in Africa until colonialism came.

He also said that one must chose between colonialism and being homophobic.

He shared on Instagram: ”History 101; not one single African was a Christian before an encounter with the colonisers.

“Homosexuality was not a criminal offence in Africa before the colonisers came. You can’t demand decolonising Africa and be homophobic at the same time. Choose a side”.

A few years ago, Bisi Alimi opened up on how he almost committed suicide when he was 17-years old.

According to him, the decision to commit suicide was due to his sexuality.
