Over the years past, the presence of queerness in African traditional royal history has experienced all kind of erasures. Much that we barely have or don't have proper documentation of "purple colored" queer folx that existed in pretty much time past. While the little we have from history tells us of a queer royalty in one of the largest traditional kingdoms in Uganda, that Kabaka (king) Mwanga II, who ruled in the latter half of the 19th century, was gay, this episode introduce us to a Nigerian Heir to the throne, whose community awaits his marriage before coronation. This narrative brings us  into a new perspective when it comes to queer narrative, it brings to the table the narrative between cultural belief, tradition, sexuality and spirituality. Dissertation of the throne isn't an option for him because according to the his father's experience, the Gods would come for him even in his dreams if he dares desert the throne.  Produced and hosted by @OKTimileyin (QueerNerd)  Instagram : @Queerci
