Telling Nigerian queer narratives isn't a thing i or anyone just started, queer narratives are rooted in our everyday storytelling, our oral history and our sacred spirituality. Erasure came upon queer Nigerians narrative with the advent of the slave trade and colonization, and during one of my Nights in Ibadan i spoke with Ayodele Olofintuade, for this episode of the podcast. Ayo is an author and a feminist who is in the business of reclaiming indigenous Queer, Nigerian, African and women narratives through her books and researches. Ayo takes us on a journey of the enbiness of the Orisas, how Ifa perceives humans as the "chosen one" and how our gaydar should have picked that Efunsetan was a "queer woman" .... One would expect this episode to end on Amala and gbegiri, but we eased out with a bowl of Garri with chicken.
