A crossdresser was reportedly attacked and publicly stripped by an irate mob in Abuja.
Dockaysworld reports that the confrontation occurred on Tuesday night, where the individual, whose identity remains unknown, attempted to escape the hostile crowd but was forcibly restrained.
The mob harassed the crossdresser in public and then let him go after giving a warning against wearing such clothes again.

Chuks of play tweeted: “Why is it hard for them to understand that they’re not acceptable in this country? And they would still work around in the neighborhood where people can hārm them♂️”
Mc Madness wrote: “Cross dressing thing is becoming a pandemic but regardless they don’t have the right to do her that way”
Another user, Ajelojuonile added: “This is bad, he’s human too and he gets to decide what he wants with his life, they should’ve let him be. They need to be arrested immediately”.
Naroscope declared: “If this gender confusion is not addressed in this country, they will grow to dominate. They are in the pipeline, creating their queer character at all level in the country.The government should flout the portrayal of LGBQT in the public rather than do nothing to their free space.”
Onyekaaa said: “Not supporting this in any form but please when youre in rome, behave like the romans. stubbornness and stupidity in the midst of wicked people will only get you killed.”
This development comes in the wake of a proposed amendment to Nigeria’s Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act, which aims to ban crossdressing by categorizing it as wearing clothing traditionally associated with the opposite sex.
