What Questions Should Uzodinma Iweala Ask President Buhari Concerning LGBT Nigerians?
On the unlikelihood that you do not know who Uzodinma Iweala is, he is the writer of the recently published Speak No Evil, a novel about coming out in America, where the son of devoutly religious parents realizes he is gay.
And he is meeting with President Buhari to talk about the welfare of LGBT Nigerians.

UPDATE:
According to Uzodinma Iweala’s account on Instagram, the twitter account is fake. And he doesn’t have any such meeting with President Buhari.
