By Ugochukwu Ugwuanyi<\/span>

These are indeed weird times in our country. An era which appears to have<\/span>
joined us in courtship with strange and unbelievable occurrences;<\/span>
emanating from us happenings we had earlier taken to be the exclusive<\/span>
preserve of those of other climes. It now seems as if the upsurge in<\/span>
unfathomable news is here with us and from us. Suddenly, we are now<\/span>
exporting unbelievable stories from our backyards to the rest of the<\/span>
world. I have no doubt people of those other land we thought are wont to<\/span>
wreck strange acts that made headlines will be shell-shocked to hear the<\/span>
news we are now feeding them.<\/span>


But why wouldn\u2019t they, when, from within, a good number of us are utterly<\/span>
dumbfounded by what we hear our \u2018compatriots\u2019 do at present. It\u2019s not by<\/span>
mistake that I have elected to question their being compatriot.\u00a0It is<\/span>
simply because the hobby they have adopted as pastime is not only<\/span>
un-Nigerian and un-African, it is verily un-human!<\/span>


Even those of the Western world who are known to have awkward taste when<\/span>
it comes to sexual relationships will marvel at this new frontier that<\/span>
some Nigerians are unfolding in that field.<\/span>


I suppose that very much suggests what is bugging my intervention for<\/span>
today. If you still don\u2019t get it; I am pained by the fact that those who<\/span>
should be my countrymen are now settling for dogs and hen as sex mates.<\/span>
They have condescended from the envious pedestal the Creator placed them<\/span>
into robbing shoulders, nay their sex organs, with dogs and hen. That they<\/span>
would derive sexual satisfaction from mating with these animals, to me,<\/span>
makes them their kind! After all, the word ‘mate’ in itself reduces them<\/span>
to becoming the animals\u2019 mate.<\/span>


God must be grieving by this inexplicable action of theirs. Must man take<\/span>
to this new low just to make a point of rebelling against God. In fact,<\/span>
satan is a very wicked being! Why must he so grieve God by leading man,<\/span>
who He created in His likeness, into foolishly allowing common animals<\/span>
partake of that privilege. I\u2019m dragging the supernaturals into this<\/span>
because the perpetrators of this terrible act would want us to believe<\/span>
they knew not what led them into committing the abomination. Hence; to<\/span>
them, it is beyond natural.<\/span>


Hear the confession of Jelili Ogunole, who supposedly \u2018raped\u2019 a hen just<\/span>
to sate his sexual craving. \u201cA spirit came over me and I didn\u2019t know what<\/span>
I was doing again until I finished sleeping with the bird,\u201d he said. Oh!<\/span>
He even realised it is a bird. A bird, which I\u2019m sure, the 20-year old<\/span>
must have savoured its broth and have treated its kind, possibly the cock,<\/span>
with disdain and contempt. But should it be a hen, he would lust after it<\/span>
and wait till the dead of the night so he can abuse it to death, as was<\/span>
reported.<\/span>


As if his case wasn\u2019t bizarre enough, still within the same week, we were<\/span>
similarly told of one Ighodaro who was apprehended while raping a dog in<\/span>
an uncompleted building! The 18-year old boy who told that he had done<\/span>
same to five dogs since March this year equally explained that he doesn\u2019t<\/span>
know what led him to do it.<\/span>


According to the pervert, \u201cI don\u2019t know when I slept with the dogs. I<\/span>
slept with dogs five times… any one that is friendly with me; I take to<\/span>
an uncompleted building and have sex.\u201d I was tempted to saying of this<\/span>
boy, that he defiled a dog. But then I quickly realised how wrong I would<\/span>
have been. The truth remains that the boy used dogs defile himself. A<\/span>
situation that is tantamount to him elevating the dogs to human and then<\/span>
demoting himself to a dog. Same can be said of Jelili.<\/span>
And if you think they only did themselves in you’d be wrong.<\/span>


These two and those in their club actually debauched us all, by<\/span>
disparaging our kind before the community of birds and dogs, thereby<\/span>
equating us with them. Don’t lose sight of the word: ‘mate’.<\/span>


They both didn\u2019t know what lured them into it, but they did it anyway! As<\/span>
simplistic as their reason sounds, there are issues that make their excuse<\/span>
not to hold water. This, we shall examine as we progress. Meanwhile, that<\/span>
we just have these two instances of men sexually abusing domestic animals<\/span>
does not mean it is just them that abide by such orientation. I have come<\/span>
to understand that when the media brings a crime to the spotlight, there<\/span>
are many other related cases that must have been going on unnoticed and<\/span>
unreported.<\/span>


When you consider the time and place the perpetrators were caught (late in<\/span>
the night in one case, and in an uncompleted building in the other), then<\/span>
would you understand how difficult it will be unearthing all those with<\/span>
this kind of disgusting preferences. Think of those who may be carrying<\/span>
out the act within the confines of their homes and closets when no other<\/span>
person is around them then will understand my point. Thus we shouldn\u2019t<\/span>
play the ostrich by thinking it is just those two there are in our<\/span>
country.<\/span>


If we then suppose that there are many others involved in such act, then<\/span>
must we ponder on wither decency, morality and sanity in our country.<\/span>
Considering the speed with which\u00a0 abnormalities morphs to normality in our<\/span>
generation, I hope we won\u2019t get to a stage where this repugnant practice<\/span>
will gain acceptance like homosexuality is now being accepted. Should that<\/span>
come to be, then would we be inadvertently fulfilling the biblical<\/span>
prediction, in Isaiah 4:1, of a time when seven women will grab a man and<\/span>
pressurise him to marry all of them.<\/span>


If you see my submission as inappropriate, what then would you have me<\/span>
say? Of course when we get to the point where some men will freely marry<\/span>
their fellow men with some others taking dogs, hen and possibly goats as<\/span>
wives, then would I not be surprised to see even ten women rushing after<\/span>
one of the remaining straight men to be his wives. Some people may not see<\/span>
that happening since women would also marry their fellow women and<\/span>
possibly make husbands of horses. This, they reckon, will make the whole<\/span>
affair culminate in a draw game.<\/span>


That leads me to the reason somebody, I discussed the topic with, gave as<\/span>
possible justification why some men are taking to animals as sex-mates. He<\/span>
noted that it is because the rate of lesbianism is too high these days. He<\/span>
alleged that the number of women who would rather sleep with their kind is<\/span>
steadily on the increase. With the attendant difficulty in securing female<\/span>
lovers, some depraved men had to look elsewhere, he argued.<\/span>

Be that as it may, my concern in all of this is for all those who practice<\/span>
and experiment with these despicable and highly immoral forms of sexual<\/span>
satisfaction to spare a thought for humanity as they seek to satisfy their<\/span>
libido. It is probable that strange afflictions like the Ebola Virus<\/span>
Disease currently plaguing humanity was brought about as a result of such<\/span>
perverse sexual practices.<\/span>


Since the two of the victims so far nabbed claimed they have no idea of<\/span>
what led them into such acts, it then behoves our religious organisations<\/span>
to intensify prayers that would dispatch to the pit of hell that evil<\/span>
spirit that leads willing tools into perpetrating this evil. It calls for<\/span>
wonderment why the number of religious houses would be on the increase<\/span>
without a commensurate reduction in the prevalence of iniquity.<\/span>


Government itself have a role to play in this. Good enough we already have<\/span>
a law we can use in dealing with this new form of crime. Section 214<\/span>
Sub-Section Two of our law which focussed on Unnatural Offences dictates<\/span>
that any person who has carnal knowledge of an animal is guilty of a<\/span>
felony and he is liable for imprisonment for 14 years when found guilty.<\/span>

Teeth should then be given to this law to deter people from getting<\/span>
themselves into such an offence. Lastly, every well-meaning individual<\/span>
should condemn the act in the strongest of terms. For if we just dismiss<\/span>
the matter with a wave of the hand, then will we be welcoming it into our<\/span>
social fabric. God forbids that we should let that happen!<\/span>
