Controversial actor, Uche Mduagwu says he lied about his gay status.
TheNewsGuru recalls that Maduagwu had in January posted on his Instagram handle that he was “proudly gay.
He had also charged Nigerians to embrace one another regardless of their different choices as demonstrated by Jesus Christ.
“Appreciate others and share only love. We need to respect peoples’ choices, and not to judge them. So, let us practice Jesus’ kind of love,” he had said.
However in an Instagram post on Monday, Maguagwu said he was merely fighting for those in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) in Nigeria.
Maduagwu, best known for trolling public figures, said his girlfriend left him while he also lost several acting gigs for calling himself gay.
“Dear fans I am not gay. I lost movie roles endorsement and my girlfriend fighting for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) in Nigeria,” he wrote.
Maduagwu, however, said he has no regret using his “celebrity status” to fight for the “beautiful” LGBT community.
“Oh my God! Even my girlfriend left me despite knowing I was fighting for LGBT right in Nigeria but I no regret using my celebrity status to fight for this beautiful community,” he added.
The graduate of sociology from the Lagos State University (LASU) has faced backlash on numerous occasions over his knack for controversies.
