Homosexuality is punishable by the death penalty in four countries in Africa and millions view LGBT people as ‘un-African’.
We speak to Bisi Alimi who stunned the nation when he came out as gay on live television in Nigeria – a stunt that almost cost him his life.
This episode of ‘Off Limits’ examines how colonial powers criminalised queer people and where in Africa the next fight for equality is likely to happen.
Off Limits is our brand new series that tackles taboos and answers the toughest questions.

Liberals champion for non whites. Yet, impose Euro culture upon non white countries
Who cares
It’s also un Africa to have so much Poverty in the world richest continent.
I just have 1 question. How to deal with the HIV?
What a stupid title for a video.
This is pathetic. Because the Nigerian president disagrees with the idea of homosexuality they want to create a narrative to push the agenda on the American public (and other places in the world) through network news media. It’s a DISGRACE. Mainstream media needs to stop trying to impose this lifestyle on the public. Many upon many disagree with it. This video is nothing more than propaganda. PEOPLE DO NOT AGREE.
I’m quite surprised that Sky allowed comments on this item.
They usually act as the censorship police and block comments very much like they did with the earlier item on Trans people self medicating.
Equally as boring a subject.
Nigeria and Russia are strong
Yes
Western propaganda for Africa trying to force this evil on us
WHAT THIS GUY DOESN’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND IS WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM BECAUSE OF HIS HOMOSEXUALITY, HE BROUGHT ON HIMSELF. IT’S HIS OWN FAULT HE ONLY HAS HIMSELF TO BLAME.
U have to obey the law of the land that’s just how it is 🤷🏾♂️
Anti LGBT laws were introduced in Africa by the British, so its ironic that some now regard them as a defence against foreign influence.
Why can’t they just accept people for who they are?!
YES !!!
"IT’S TRUE "
I love all people regardless of their religions, race, language, age or political party they belong to
The ignorance in this day and age is overwhelming. They allow American preachers to come to their country and tell them how to think and don’t see the manipulation. Those preachers look down on Africans as though they cannot think on their own. Their response was that "even animals don’t do it…" referring to homosexuality, however a brief amount of research reveals there are over 1,000 species that engage in homosexual relationships. Penguins alone have exclusive same sex relationships in zoos all over the world. These government officials need to get with the times. People are born that way and there is nothing wrong with someone loving another person, nothing.
Being a Christian and Muslim is un-African. Christianity is a West Asian religion like Islam and before some dumbass with no history knowledge comes to me and says Ethiopia, Emperor Ezana imported the religion to Aksum (modern day Northern Ethiopia) in 332 CE from Rome where he was baptised. Christianity didn’t become a state religion in Ethiopia until 340 CE.
day eet da poopoo
I’m trying to understand why are we so concerned about how this person is living his life ?
Thank ya I wasn’t born in Africa
What does the bible tell us about homosexuality
90% of nigerian do not agree with homosexualism
absolutely
im just saying don’t do anything to us we are kurd😭😭😭
South Africa is lit tho
It’s very un-European to have areas in countries where the respective country’s language is not even spoken and it’s turned in to a crime ridden slum….but we have to put up with it.
It’s unhuman to be a Homosexual. Abnormal, a pervert , a freak under the influences of Demons.
David, Man of God
Well done Africa, all countries must have the death penalty for this horrific crime.
This is sad because it hits home very close for me. My dad is from Nigeria I’m 31 years old and we haven’t spoken since I came out at 21. Now I’m wondering is this because why.
WHY ARE U GAE?
this guy probably needs to have a discussion about his childhood trauma and how homosexual Behavior was imprinted on him at a young age.
As a nigerian what he is saying is a big lie
It is only the more sophisticated countries which happen to be predominantly white, do people have any common sense and civility. Africa is still in the Stone Age.
Leviticus 19*19. Yall going to hell anyway I guess. So maybe stop being Homophobic murderers.
Answering the question, that no one is asking…😂😂😂
Sky is a gov puppet youtube channel
Yes, it is. Leave that behavior out of Africa
This dude is married though
Nobody Deserved To Be Treated Bad. For Who They Love.

Both Africa and Jamaica are crazy homophobic
That’s a lie. It has never been accepted in any form of Ativan culture – pre or post colonialism that homosexuality is accepted as a normal form of living. Why get someone on here to lie?
Sexuality utilised (In Africa) as a Propaganda Tool for DIVIDE & RULE !!
What about the Chinese, or the Indians or the Arabs??
When will Africans learn❗️
Things are done in THEIR favour
and NOT YOURS. ‼️ 🙄
In Nigeria we practice polygamy, will Europe and America practice polygamy too?
