Homosexuality cult taking over Nigeria, Christian group warn
A religious organization under the banner of the National Prayer Altar (NPA) has expressed concern over the increasing prevalence of sodomy and sexual perversion. It has called on the Federal Government to strengthen legislation against LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer) practices.
The group has proposed that public advocates of LGBTQ activities should face arrest and prosecution, and has urged that politicians involved in homosexuality be exposed and denounced as harmful influences on society.
Speaking at a press conference, Pastor Bosun Emmanuel, the NPA Coordinator, called on the National Assembly to enact stricter laws against sodomy and other forms of sexual misconduct.
The NPA further raised alarm about what it described as a “Homosexuality Cult in Nigeria.” This claim, they noted, was underscored by the recent legal proceedings against a prominent crossdresser, Olanrewaju Idris Okuneye (popularly known as Bobrisky). Bobrisky was alleged, in a recorded telephone conversation, to have a powerful “godfather,” implicating high-ranking members of society in such practices.
Pastor Emmanuel stated, “The fact that someone like this is openly referred to as ‘Mummy of Lagos’ reflects a collective lapse in our moral and cultural standards as a nation. Homosexuality is a deliberate corruption of humanity, orchestrated by Lucifer, the adversary of God and mankind.
“Nigerians must rise to denounce those who engage in such practices. Such individuals should not be entrusted with leadership positions, as their actions bring negative consequences upon the entire country. We call on Christians in Nigeria and the diaspora to observe Sunday, December 15, 2024, as a National Day of Confession and Repentance from Sodomy.”
The organization also recommended that producing materials such as films, videos, or publications that promote LGBTQ practices be classified as prosecutable offenses under any forthcoming legislation.
Pastor Emmanuel emphasized the need to educate Nigerians about the dangers of sodomy, citing Leviticus 18, which warns that sexual immorality defiles a land and leads to its downfall. He noted the ongoing migration of Nigerians as evidence of societal collapse.
The group also called on the Ministry of Education to remove compromising content from school curricula and to intensify monitoring of school dormitories to protect children from undue influence.
“The National Film and Video Censors Board must exercise stricter oversight of entertainment content in the country. LGBTQ advocates often exploit the film industry to manipulate societal perceptions. As a nation, we must unite to reject practices that violate our cultural and moral values,” Pastor Emmanuel added.
He further urged for stricter regulation of NGOs, particularly those introducing foreign practices contrary to African values. He advised against adopting everything from the West, emphasizing the importance of cultural and religious principles as guiding standards.
“Legislation should empower Nigerians to sue foreign NGOs introducing harmful initiatives into the country. Nigeria must reinforce its moral boundaries and safeguard its cultural integrity,” he said.
In conclusion, Pastor Emmanuel appealed to parents to provide robust moral guidance to their children. While schools impart knowledge, he stressed that the responsibility of instilling core values and discipline lies with families, ensuring children are well-equipped to resist moral degradation.
