Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi has slammed singer, Simi after she spoke against people hating others for being different.
Bisi berated Simi and accused her of promoting local homophobic violence.
Simi had spoken against people hating others for being different and also against “killings” which she said is now normal. She tweeted;
And we have our own people killing us in the streets and it has become so normal now. It’s almost more abhorrent. As fucked as it is, it is one thing for people to be intimidated by and hate you for being different, but how do you not value someone the exact same as you?
However, Bisi Alimi slammed the singer over the tweet as he called her a hyprocrite because of an earlier remark Simi had once made on her youtube show.
The gay rights activist’s response was centered on one of Simi’s “Stoopid Sessions” Youtube shows, in which she alleged that homosexuality is not natural but learned.
He tweeted;
There is a name you call the #Nigeria middle/upper class elites that sympathise with abroad blackness but promote local homophobic violence against there own #LGBT; hypocrites. The @SympLySimi of this world. You are a disgrace.
Nigeria elites are oblivious to that, because they can fly around the world, they would rather align with abroad struggle than be a local hero
Deleted her music and her husband's after that terrible show. She has pals lounging around talking about how homosexuality is a sin. She should have shut it and drank her coke and talked about what she knows which is little
