Wow! I'm so sorry you had to go through that 🥺 I hope you can share more of your story when you find the strength to. I think there's so much in there for people to learn from and be inspired by. But yes, we ought to give ourselves the love we deserve.

My dear, I browsed through a past post on your weekly and saw something about your relationship status. I quickly DMed my brother and he confirmed.

Lol, the first thing I thought, "I want to hear how you came out". I'm glad you shared this cause it confirmed my suspicions: YOU DID IT LIKE A DORITHIAN! Haha, full on LGBTQ+ society and everything!

I'm really proud of you Arinze. Really proud!! Jisike o nna. Jisike! Thank you for being you! We deserve nothing less! ❤

Haha I'm happy he could clear the air. But yes, Doritians tend to do the most lol. Thank you so much, Ezinma. We should catch up soon. I miss you.

Thank you for sharing. It’s sad how normalized homophobia is in Nigeria, and I’m glad you’re where you are now <3
