Alder Consulting is a strategy and consulting firm in Nigeria, whose well-respected chief executive tweets about sex, and relationships regularly.

A member of the team was invited to a new media and governance conference. Because cross-dresser Idris Okuneye (Bobrisky) was invited, they pulled out, via a press release this morning:

The inclusion of Bobrisky unfortunately sensationalises&radicalises what should otherwise be a serious discourse on new approaches to media

Two Nigerians give an eloquent response to that response.

He is a human being in his own right, that statement by Alder Consulting was a little extra and quite unnecessary. Discriminatory in fact.

I am very disappointed in the Alder statement on Bobriskyy. Very very. This faux superiority complex will be the death of young Nigerians
