This discussion is severely lacking in the African space. Thank you for talking about it with such grace and eloquence.

I feel grateful to have witnessed your compelling delivery and witnessed the audience acclaim you as the most eloquent speaker of all. Your passion and charisma captivated everyone. You should be proud of yourself!

Just wow!!! This was well written & brilliantly delivered, and it’s a blessing to know that there are Africans that dare stand up for what they believe is right, regardless of wether or not it’s accepted in the court of popular opinion. Well done my friend I’m proud of you 🎉

Got here from your Twitter, I'm grateful that you spoke of Values, Norms and how Ultimately that's what creates culture. In (Nigeria) Africa we have a long way to go.
But as you've said; one person is not more African than the other, hopefully we all get to equality and fairer governance that we need.

Thank you for this brilliant submission of logic and facts on Africa's widely accepted negative views on the LGBTQ. I just want to be your friend bro.

This was brilliantly written and was presented so eloquently. Minorities are not less African. They are not less human either. Thank you for making this presentation.
