A USA based Nigerian professor who went viral months ago over her comment about the death of the late England monarch, Queen Elizabeth, has announced her proposal to her lesbian lover.
Outspoken Uju Anya has been in a relationship for a while with Dr Sirry Alang who hails from Cameroon and holds a PhD in Health Policy and Management from the university of Minnesota. Uju herself is a professor of linguistics.
In her words via her social media handle “My darling love, Dr Sirry Alang asked me to be her wife and I said yes”
Both had been married to men in previous years and had children but somewhere along the line, had divorced and found love in each other’s eyes. In their unconventional relationship, Uju Anya is the wife while Dr Sirry Alang is the husband.
The reaction from Nigerians that trails the announcement was expectedly mostly homophobic. Others wished them well though and hope they find the happiness they truly seek for.
