Pamela Adie, the Executive Director of Equality Hub, has
revealed what happened after she came out as a lesbian to her parents 7 years
ago. She made this revelation to counter Segun Runsewe's morality argument.
Otunba Segun Runsewe,
the Director General of the National Council of Arts and Culture, narrated how
a mother went into a coma because the daughter she sent to school in Germany
became a lesbian. Runsewe shared this story to defend his decision to
"protect our culture" and keep fighting immorality after the video of
half naked ladies dancing in a transparent truck for Tekno's music video,
emerged.
But Twitter users called out Runsewe for his statement. They
countered his argument that a child coming out as gay could lead the parent to
have a stroke.
Pamela, who made the documentary film Under The Rainbow,
weighed in by narrating how she came out to her parents yet their relationship
still remains intact.
Sharing Runsewe's
statement, she wrote: I came out as lesbian to my parents about 7 years
ago. I just returned from Abuja where my
father and the rest of my family celebrated my mum’s 65th birthday!"
