According to Reverend Rowland Olajide Macaulay, the founder of the LGBTs church, House Of Rainbow Fellowship - "any negative effect on the anti-gay bill will have detrimental effect on the work and mission of House Of Rainbow in Nigeria. The lives of LGBTI people and their friends, families and allies will be further frustrated with fear and prejudice. We need to pray and stand up against injustice. My Church is a voice of the younger generation of citizens, activists, and diaspora, and our collective belief in a more progressive Nigeria."
"They are afraid of our growing influence as we gather allies not just from the West, but from people that are not afraid but powerful and resilient. Right now, we are spreading their tentacles to every village, town and city around the world. The Church is also calling on faithful and dedicated local leaders who believe in homosexuality and lesbianism. Ten House Of Rainbow Fellowship local leaders are in Ghana, Nigeria, UK, Burundi, and Lesotho. Religion is a backbone to life in Nigeria, so, we all want to go to Church. But we don’t want to lie to God about who we are, ” He said.
