A Nasty Boy – Examining Queerness in Nigeria

Interviews

The Loving World Of The Nigerian Artist Who Came Out On Instagram

Patrick Chuka had always known he was gay, and at fourteen, he made the courageous decision of coming out to his family. His mother and siblings supported him. For Nigerian men who are gay, family acceptance or understanding is as rare as a horse passing through the eye of a needle.

Parents take their children to churches with the hopes of exorcizing the gay out of them, in other cases – disown them out rightly.
