Nigerian teenager launches an LGBT-inclusive fashion brand
FlyJ posted a topic in Latest News and Gist
Daniel Kunke, a 19-year old Nigerian college student has spoken about why he decided to start an LGBT-inclusive clothing brand. In an interview, the teenager who is currently studying Mass communications at Yaba College of Technology in Lagos said that his aim is to ensure that everyone is “equally represented” by making sure that “there’s something available for everyone” Can you tell us about yourself, your brand, how it all started, and what inspired it? I am Daniel Kunke, a 19-year old student of Mass Communication at Yabatech. I am a janitor, brand owner and I write during my bored times. I am the founder of Kunke’s Apparels, a new Lagos-based clothing line focused on making urban wears that can be worn to major occasions especially in Lagos where we have all the altè and urbane hangouts and locations. The idea to start up a fashion brand has always been there, but I never did put any real efforts into making it happen not until recently when I took the idea more seriously. This happened immediately after I stopped working as a personal assistant to my previous employer. One of the things that inspired me to start up a clothing line were majorly the idea of having my own thing and to be independent as against working under the employ of someone else which isn’t really something that I like. Also, the reason why I decided to run an inclusive brand came as result of my interest in socio-discriminatory topics and my strong desire to ensure that all persons regardless of their sexuality or gender identity are equally represented across board. So going forward, what’s the overall plan, and don’t you worry that being an LGBT-inclusive brand will hurt your business considering people’s negative perception about LGBT issues? Honestly, at this point, the plan now is just to sit back and see how everything turns out and how far the brand could go. In fact my aim right now is to ensure that more people get to see what I am doing and are able to patronize me so that I can remain in the business, not necessarily to be the number 1 clothing line in the world, not like that will be a bad thing if it happens though (smiles). And also, I really do not think that being inclusive would have a negative impact on my brand, I mean the brand is not just for a particular set of people it’s for everyone, so just come into the store and pick whatever it is that you like and go, whatever inscription that is on any other clothing isn’t your business. It’s just that simple. When people relate with your brand, how do you want them to feel and how do you want to come across to them? At Kunke Apparels, we want to ensure that people are entirely comfortable with wearing our clothing’s, that’s why we strive to be an inclusive brand so as to ensure that there’s something for everyone when they visit our stores or decide to shop with us. Also we want to prove to other brands, that being inclusive is very possible and very important and that it doesn’t hurt at all if everyone is fully represented and given the opportunity to be themselves. Can you tell us about the progress you have made so far with your brand since you started? I’ll say that I’ve gotten quite some positive responses so far since I started my brand. As an inclusive brand, the support I have gotten has been very encouraging from both members of the LGBT community in Nigeria and heterosexual persons, and every other person in fact. As I mentioned earlier, my brand is all about making sure that there’s something available for everyone.- 1 reply

DAKAR - Several hundred protesters rallied Sunday in Dakar to demand that homosexuality be made a crime in Senegal, according to AFP journalists. It is not illegal to identify as gay in the deeply conservative Muslim nation, but same-sex activity is already punishable by up to five years in prison. Religious leaders and civil society figures addressed hundreds of jubilant protesters, who had gathered in a central square for the rally organised by And Samm Jikko Yi, a civil society collective that promotes "correct values". Ousmane Kouta, a representative of a student religious group, told the crowd that Senegal is a country of faith and values. "It is homophobic and will remain so forever," he said, to cheers and chanted slogans. Aminata Diallo, a member of an association for young Muslims, told AFP that she attended the rally to protest homosexuality and demand its criminalisation. Other protesters were more extreme. "We will kill them, or we will burn them alive. We'll never accept homosexuality," said 56-year-old municipal official Demba Dioup. Senegal's government has repeatedly ruled out legalising homosexuality. Senegal's President Macky Sall has previously stressed that gay people are not ostracised in the nation of 16 million however, and that the same-sex activity ban reflects cultural norms. Consensual same-sex relations are legal in 21 of 54 African countries, according to a 2019 report by the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association. Source

Namibia is reportedly making moves to officially abolish its colonial-era sodomy laws from its books by the end of this year. According to local news publication Windhoek Observer, the move has been several years in the making. In 2018, the country’s Law Reform and Development Commission (LRDC) began a project of identifying obsolete laws “that need to be done away with, amended, or repealed.” On Monday, the LRDC submitted a report on its criminal codes outlawing same-sex intimacy to Justice Minister Yvonne Dausab, who plans on a proposal to the Cabinet striking down the laws in two weeks. Namibia’s anti-sodomy codes are a legacy of Roman-Dutch common law, similar to many other nations that are left with homophobic statutes imposed upon them by their former colonizers. Although there’s no direct criminalization of same-sex sexual activity on the books via the country’s laws, 2004’s Criminal Procedure Act outlines the requirement providing evidence of sodomy in prosecution. While the precedent for enforcing these laws exists, the laws are rarely used, according to the report submitted Monday. Between 2003 and 2013, 115 sodomy cases were reported to the police, resulting in 64 arrests, according to national newspaper The Namibian. The report also claims that the law is “very likely unconstitutional,” as it violates the rights of LGBTQ+ people and creates a culture of intolerance. According to the U.K. publication Gay Times, Dausab said the abolishment of the outmoded statutes is a way for the south African country “to move in a direction that will make all Namibians feel included” and “make all Namibians feel they are members of the Namibian House.” But while pushing for greater inclusion for the LGBTQ+ community, she also denied the existence of state-sponsored homophobia. “Homophobia, transphobia, any phobic tendencies are not state-sanctioned,” Dausab said. “But we must allow people to have their own views. What we should not allow is that there is any active or passive discrimination against any segment of our society.” Omar van Reenen, founder of the Namibia Equal Rights Movement (NERM), pushed back on this claim. In comments reported by the website Afro News, he asserted that it was “disingenuous to not acknowledge that former president Sam Nujoma told police officers to arrest, deport and imprison the LGBTQ+ people.” “It is sad to not acknowledge that former justice minister Albert Kawana was the person responsible for not removing sexual orientation from the labour act,” he added, referencing a labor law that provides protections for Namibian workers. Still, van Reenen welcomed the abolishment of the laws, while also calling for greater governmental accountability and for the passage of an LGBTQ+ equality bill. While things are looking up for Namibia’s LGBTQ+ population, circumstances remain grim further north in Ghana. In February, an LGBTQ+ community center in Accra, the country’s capital, was raided by police, forcing it to shut down after only a month of operation. The following month, Ghanaian lawmakers introduced a bill that would criminalize LGBTQ+ advocacy, with President Nana Akufo-Addo indicating that he would sign it into law if passed. Despite the fact that this bill is not yet law, 21 LGBTQ+ activists were arrested for “unlawful assembly” in the city of Ho last week and are currently being held without bail. This most recent incident has attracted international attention. On Tuesday, the U.S. State Department issued a statement to the LGBTQ+ news publication Washington Blade on Tuesday in which it claimed that the Biden administration is “monitoring the situation closely.” “We urge national leaders in Ghana to uphold constitutional human rights protections and to adhere to international human rights obligations and commitments for all individuals,” the statement reads. “This includes members of the LGBTQI+ community. We call on all Ghanaians to respect the provisions under Ghana’s constitution that guarantee freedom of speech, expression, and peaceful assembly. Source

Daddy Freeze further added that a disciple of Jesus, Peter once called him "Lucifer" which means "bringer of light". He wrote; I declare to you today that praying in the name or title ‘Lucifer’ is more potent than praying in the name your colonial masters gave your savior. - Jesus has NO meaning in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin or English, while Lucifer’ on the other hand means ‘light bringer’ as used in the original Latin scriptures quoted below, correctly translated from the Greek word ‘φωσφ?ρος’ which has the 100 percent exact same meaning as Lucifer. - Below, you can clearly see a well documented instance of Peter calling Christ ‘Lucifer’ in the Latin Bible and ‘φωσφ?ρος’ in the Greek Bible. The original language of the New Testament is GREEK and to properly understand scripture, you can’t neglect it. - The Greek and Latin bibles were written more than 1,600 years before the grossly erroneous biblical mistranslation called the King James Version was declared as the ‘Authorized Version’. - ? 2 Peter 1:19 ?

''I am not happy because you guys are frustrating my life because I am getting depressed already. I thought I have moved on and everybody has moved on. I have not been getting jobs, I am getting broke. You know as a public figure you have to have money to take care of some personal expenses. Right now I don't have any money. Now, if people book me for a job, the company or brand would see Godwin Maduagu and they would say no, we can't use this boy. How do you guys want me to feel? How do you expect me to feed or survive? You guys said I made a video to trend. Now who is now trending and who is now losing? How do you expect me to make a video that will destroy my life and everything. You guys should just pity me now, Please. I am not happy. I want to get my life back. I need money. Right now I feel like I am going to commit suicide because I can't take this anymore. It is really depressing and it is affecting me psychologically. ''
