It’s Time I Fight for Nigerian Gay Community – Charly Boy

By Farouk Mohammed

Nigerian Social activist, Charly Boy has revealed that it’s time for him to fight for gays in Nigeria.

The entertainer known for his unconventional stance on social issues said his renewed vigour to fight for the rights of the LGBT is coming against the backdrop of his daughter, Dewy Oputa, who recently came out as a lesbian and also showed off her lesbian partner.

Se his post below:

”All that I have done for over 50yrs of my life is to root for the underdogs.

I turned my back on my goldplated pedigree and wondered into the unknown.

I discovered that victory is a million times sweeter as an underdog. Oh!!!!! Yes.

My life has been one Big fight, against bad habits, poverty, hopelessness and principalities.

But I never backed down.

I battled for the rights of the Okada’s to make a living.I battled for the rights, respect and the

big money for the Nigerian Musician, spent weeks in the police cell, as a pman president.

Today, thank God they have a better life. Now am the President of Frustrated Nigerians.

I am battling with my comrades to stop the senseless killings of Nigerians.

The oppression of Inocent Nigerians and the weaponisation of hunger.

Many battles too many to mention. I have been beaten black and blue by

the military, police, security agents, been teargassed, shot at, stoned and most time misunderstood even by the people I fight for. No big deal because I never back down. Now I reactivate my fight in defence of the LGBT community.? You know something? Openness may not completely disarm prejudice but is a good place to start. I am hoping that my support will be a show of strength to the Nigerian LGBT ?community. Because seriously speaking to each his own”
