Nigerian gay rights activist and HIV/LGBT advocate, Bisi Alimi has recalled different phases in his life including when he only loved girls, was a passionate, Bible-believing youth who considered being a pastor.
In an Instagram post Monday evening, the married activist also reflected on the time he was ”confused, depressed and heartbroken.’
He said, “Now I am going through the Lucifer stage…it might last for eternity or not but one thing is clear. This lucifer stage is becoming my most self aware, self assured, self conscious of them all.
“And there are still many phases I can’t remember. But in all of this. something remains constant. My curiosity.
“As a very curious being, I have always opened myself up for growth, mistakes, adventures, learning, unlearning, love, fear, tears, success and failure.
“I guess the full gist is, you are never fully grown until you are dead. Death is the end-all of everything. So please, dont deny yourself the joy of curiosity,” he concluded.
