I left Lagos to Mozambique last week. I planned to be there for about a week and return to Nigeria. As I always do before travel, I researched travel & visa requirements. What I found for citizens of Nigeria is that we can get visa on arrival. In fact, I couldn’t find any information on a Mozambican embassy or consulate in Nigeria, which let me to believe there isn’t any. The logistics officer and travel agent found the same information that I did: “Nigerians get visa on arrival”.

I tried to register an organization in 2018 but the Nigerian government said “no” because the name of the Org. had the word “lesbian” in it. That was a blatant violation of my constitutional right to freely associate and freedom of expression. When I sued the govt. and.. the High Court sided with the government, citing the discriminatory section 4 of the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act signed by @GEJonathan , Nigerians cheered. I remember people saying “no space for this in Nigeria”. I laughed cuz discrimination be like breakfast
