Maureen Esisi calls for imprisonment of gay men who marry women – TheCable Lifestyle –

Maureen Esisi, the Nigerian fashion designer, has called for the imprisonment of gay men who get married to women.

Esisi, who is the ex-wife of Blossom Chukwujekwu, the Nollywood actor, was reacting to the online dispute between Fancy Acholonu, and Alexx Ekubo, her ex-partner, on Instagram.

Acholonu has been in the news since she apologised to Ekubo for calling off their wedding in 2021.

In a recent interview, she said she and the actor did not get intimate during the five years they dated.

“His sexuality is not the reason I broke up with him. I’m very open-minded so regardless of what he prefers, love is love for me. I loved him for his personality and heart nothing more,” she had said.

“He didn’t want to be with me intimately which was confusing and difficult for me to understand especially for 5 years so it did affect my self-esteem as I kept myself for him and when he would cheat with curvy women he wouldn’t perform with them either so I don’t know, I can’t confirm or deny his sexuality but for me, I loved him despite all and he still found ways to hurt me.”

Reacting to the online drama, Esisi said if the federal government can’t legalise homosexuality, it should place stiffer punishments on “gay men who trap women into marriage to hide their sexual orientation”.

“If the Presidency/Nigeria can’t find it necessary to legalize being gay, so that these mFs can live their lives normally then there should be a gigantic penalty for the monsters who knowing their sexuality, still go ahead to marry/trap their opposite sex (victims) refuse them their responsibility, heavily manipulate them and shatter their mental health and self worth,” she wrote.

“Traumatize them heavily then divorce them only to run along to the next victim and act like they done nothing.

“It should be life imprisonment. NB: And it be the self-acclaimed Jesus Babies doing this shit. All the damn time.”
