A couple of
years back, a report was made of the activities of Reverend Rowland who
was running a gay Church underground in Lagos, Nigeria. The Church called House
of Rainbow was situated at No 36/38 Yakoyo Street, Ojodu Berger, Lagos.
Reverend Roland sometime ago reportedly appeared on Cable Network News, CNN,
where he proudly talked about his Church of gays.
The initial reaction
about his exposure was that such a Church could not exist within Nigeria as
such things are common in abroad.
But an uproar in
the Anglican communion in Europe on gay bishops brought up the case of Reverend
Rowland, a Nigerian who was residing in Lagos. He was also operating his gay
Church in Lagos.
In his plot 145
flat 1, Jakande Estate, Isolo, Lagos, where Rev. Rowland Olajide Macaulay, the
gay Pastor lived, the apartment was locked. It was learnt that the Reverend
left his house on Saturday, September 13, immediately after a national
newspaper carried the story of his homosexual Church and ever since, he had not
been seen.
According to his
neighbours, the Sunday service could not hold both at the Jakande Estate branch
and the Ojodu headquarters of House of Rainbow Ministries after that
publication.
Right now, Rev.
Rowland has relocated abroad where he is presently running his gay
Church,”House Of Rainbow Fellowship”.
According to the
gay Pastor, “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”.
According to
him, “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,” he said.
“But we don’t
want to lie to God about who we are.”
Macaulay first
set up House of Rainbow in 2006 and openly held Sunday services in a Lagos
hotel hall decorated in rainbow colours. A public backlash culminated in
members being beaten as they left the Church. Macaulay fled to the UK after
receiving death threats.
