The human rights activist shared the milestone with his followers, reflecting on the journey he and his husband have taken together over the past ten years.

Their anniversary has attracted attention on social media, with followers and supporters reacting to the couple’s celebration and sending congratulatory messages.

Bisi Alimi, who is internationally recognised for his advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights, became one of Nigeria’s most prominent gay rights activists after publicly coming out as gay during an appearance on Nigerian television in 2004.



His public declaration made him a subject of widespread attention and controversy in Nigeria, where same-sex relationships remain criminalised under the Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act of 2014.

Following years of advocacy and challenges, Alimi relocated abroad, continuing his work on LGBTQ+ rights, inclusion and equality.

His marriage to Anthony in 2016 marked an important personal milestone, and the couple have continued to share aspects of their life together publicly.

As they celebrate ten years of marriage, the anniversary has once again brought attention to their relationship and Bisi Alimi’s journey as an activist.
