GLOW UP PRIDE 1.0 – 2020
An actual pride event in Nigeria would have been thought impossible, a few years ago, after a tweep mentioned it has a possibility, the Nigerian LGBT community had an uproar and a division, some folx believed it was a suicidal mission, and others felt we could. Suggestions to create a balance like wearing a mask to protect people’s identity were made. Pride month across the universe is a month that is all about gays, lesbians, and every other identity and expression in the LGBT community. Parades that are usually had in every geographical location of the world, where being queer is not criminalized are canceled this year, thanks to the coronavirus, which created the need for a new exploration of new ideas.
