Deji LamboA hairstylist, Oluwatosin Idowu, has demanded the prosecution of some policemen who allegedly arrested him for looking like a gay. I requested to see his ID card, which he showed me. On getting to the bus, one of them came down with a gun and demanded my ID card, which I showed him. The next question that followed was, ‘Why are you looking like a girl in your ID card?’ I told him that I had been using the ID card for about four years.”Idowu noted that efforts to convince the men that he was not a gay were abortive, as they insisted on arresting him. The victim said he was detained for over eight hours because the policemen insisted that he looked like a gay.
