A Nigeria transgender had decided to share his story and appeal to people to stop stigmatizing people like him.
The man, now simply identified as Miss Sahhara has claimed that he was abused and jailed in Nigeria for being a transgender.
In an article she shared yesterday to mark the Transgender Day of Remembrance, she talked about how depressed she felt and how she even attempted suicide.
She said;
I dream of a world where we are given some sort of understanding and tolerance to live peacefully as able, intelligent fellow human beings who make positive contributions to society.
Transgendered people are human too. We are your brothers, your sisters, your children, your friends and your lovers. Stop the hate! "
