The story you’re about to read is an
encounter with a homosexual mistress as
reported and detailed bySunnewsonline.
Six years ago, Musa Ali (not his real name)
was linked up with a rich businessman in
Yola, who ‘initiated’ him into gay sex. Ali was
told that being gay would make him bold
and feared. Of course, he was also told that
he would make a huge load of money. Now
36, Ali is somewhat filled with regrets and
wishing it were possible to turn back the
hands of the clock.
Sitting in the serene evening of last
Thursday in Bankin Kogi at the bank of River
Benue in Yola after a Herculean arrangement
to get him to talk, he shared his story with
our correspondent. Ali revealed that the rich
and the powerful, both in business and
politics hit the hay with him. Excerpts…
How did you become a gay?
A woman my friend introduced to me lured
me into it. The woman linked me up with
some men in business and in politics. The
first man I was introduced to told me that
having anal sex would fetch me good
fortune and I would be bold to challenge
anybody no matter his social status. He said
that if I wanted to be rich and be likable, I
should join the club of gays. He said that I
would meet influential people and they
would be attracted to me. Also, I was told
that if I ask for anything, without hesitation,
my demands would be obliged. He said
whenever I speak, I would be feared and my
wish would obeyed. That was six years ago.
He made love to me during political
campaigns and gave me N150,000. I bought
a parcel of land with that money but later
sold it.
How old are you now and what has been
your experience?
I am 36 years old. As I said earlier, I have
been in this business (anal sex act) for six
years. But all that I was promised did not
come to pass. The business has robbed me
of my senses and personality. Big men
patronize us, but the business is not worth
it. The same big men that patronize and give
us big money, somehow through diabolical
means, snatch the same money from us.
They make love to us and give us big money
but we never really benefit from the money.
I have often regretted being a gay but I
cannot help it. I sometimes ask myself what
are the benefits derivable from this act?
Nothing at all! My earlier plan was that I
would work as a gay, get huge amount of
money and settle down with a beautiful
wife. But I was unable to use the proceeds
to do anything worthwhile or live a
comfortable life. But that has not come to be
after all. I have gained over N9 million as
proceeds from this act but cannot account
for it. The wealthy in the society only use us
as mistresses and abandon us at the end.
Although some of us are being courted by
powerful men in the society, but they
discard us like worthless rag in the long run
after satisfying themselves.
You said you were told that homosexual
sex would make you bold. Are you now
bold and feared by people?
Yes, for the first two years, I was feared and
respected. But I do not enjoy such power
again.
Why is that so?
Honestly, I don’t know why.
Before you were introduced to the
homosexual act, did you have affection for
women?
Yes.
Do you still have affection for women
now?
No. I used to have affection for women or
young girls, but I no longer have such
feelings and this is disturbing me seriously.
It is disturbing because no matter how
beautiful a girl is I cannot have feeling of
love for her nor make love advances to her.
She won’t be appealing to me. I regret
becoming a homosexual. I found myself in a
precarious situation because my colleagues
might kill me if I dared to leave the business.
We are expected to stick to the covenant we
have all entered into.
Do you have a permanent partner?
I do not have a permanent partner because
most of the people I have met did not want
to maintain a permanent relationship, which
would entail paying for my domestic needs
and being responsible for my medical bills
on certain ailments I could contract as a
result of our participation in this gay sex. In
fact, I was betrothed to a man in Yobe who
eventually abandoned me. After that
experience I decided not to have a
permanent partner.
Who are you regular with?
Please skip that I cannot tell you. This is
because most of our clients are big men in
the society and mentioning their names will
put my life in danger. My clients are
businessmen and politicians. I don’t want to
mention their names.
Please in confidence tell me about some
of them.
Forget that. Please skip this question. If you
don’t skip that I will not talk with you again.
(Then he beckoned on the person that
facilitated the interview and said to him, go
with your friend. I can no longer discuss
with him.)
Would you not regard what you are
engaged in as ****?
(Getting angry now and frantically calling the
person that facilitated the interview)
frantically)
Tell your friend to leave me alone. What I do
is not ****. Call it whatever name you
like, it is a business as I am not here as a
prostitute. It is people like you who
embarrass and ridicule us, calling us all sorts
of names and giving this business a bad
name.
(He later calmed down and agreed to
continue with the discussion after much
pleading.)
Where are your clients?
They are from across the country but mostly
in Kano, Yobe, Maiduguri, Bauchi, Gombe
and Sokoto.
You said earlier your first client gave you
N150,000. Is that what you get paid every
time?
Each client at the local level in Yola pays
between N10,000 and N12,000 per sex
session. We don’t charge clients that are
wealthy. We don’t charge the politicians
because they are always ready to pay more
than we ordinarily would have charged. A
politician or a businessman can pay from
N150,000 to N200,000 per sex session. The
elite know what they derive from us
sexually, which is not known to us.
Do you know that government has
banned this your business? Government
has enacted a law forbidding same-sex
marriage and relationships?
I learnt so, but I am not sure.
Do you have health-related issue as a
result of this business?
I don’t know until I see a doctor. We have,
however, lost two persons who died as a
result of the gay practice.
How did they die, please tell me?
They just took ill. They had health problems
and they didn’t survive.
Are you going to stop the practice?
I actually want to stop, but I cannot stop
because I will be killed by my colleagues for
not complying with the covenant entered
into not to disclose this activity to anybody.
Probably, I have been hypnotized. I cannot
tell.
Do you have an association?
No, we don’t have here, but the elite in some
states may have association. We do not do
this business in the open, so we cannot
have an association.
Do your family members know you are
gay?
My mother got to know about what I’m
doing two years ago, but my father died 12
years ago before I started this business. It is
only my mother that knows this but I have
kept on denying. My mother was said to
have cursed me after learning about this,
but I don’t know if the curse is working on
me or not.
Do you do the act on a bed or mattress?
That is not your business.
What religion do you practice?
That is not your business, please.
How will you feel if you are caught in this
act?
I will not allow myself to be caught unless
someone reports me to Civil Defence or the
police.
