Nigerian authorities are using a 2014 anti-LGBTQIA+ law that bans same-sex weddings to raid parties and publicly parade those arrested as a form of deterrence, said prominent Lagos lawyer Chizelu Emejulu who has represented many of those detained.

Two mass arrests in the past three months go beyond the scope of the law and directly contravene the right of assembly, guaranteed by the constitution, said Emejulu.

Police arrested 76 partygoers in the northern Nigerian state of Gombe in October, while in August, 69 people were detained in the south in Delta state on suspicion of attending a same-sex wedding. “State actors like the (police) will always justify their infringements on the rights of LGBTQI persons through these mass arrests on the grounds that those arrested are conducting same-sex marriages,” Emejulu told Openly in an interview.

Merely attending a birthday party, or any party, does not mean those present were there to celebrate a wedding, he said. Emejulu has been one of the most prominent legal advocates for LGBTQ+IA Nigerians since 2018 and has represented defendants in several mass arrest cases.

Life Christmas History Before Jesus came around, Christmas was just another wild gay sex fest in Ancient Rome
heteroflexible. While Romans could be a bit squeamish about same-sex relationships between grown men, they generally abandoned this discomfort for Saturnalia. Instead, this festival aimed to emulate the queertastic parties of ancient Greece, and featured, in the words of one historian, “boys running naked through the streets, women dressed as men, masters of the house waiting on slaves, and an overabundance of wine, cunnilingus, and fruitcake.” Sadly, as humanity closed out the 4th century, Saturnalia slowly receded into the past while It Boy Jesus Christ began to steal all the attention.
