Oyenike Laoye-Oturu, professionally known as Nikki Laoye, has criticized the recent anti-gay bill passed into law by the federal government saying that it is not necessary and uncalled for.

According to her, “ I believe it's the ideal plan by God when he created humankind. I just think the law and the 14 years imprisonment are unnecessary.”

“Nigerians, even before the law, don't appreciate or condone the gay mode. So, to me, it doesn't change anything. We have other pending law matters for more important issues we are facing as a nation, still waiting to be addressed,” she added.

Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Nikki Laoye hails from the musical lineage of the talking drum legend - Late Oba Adetoyese Laoye (from Ede, Osun State-Nigeria), The singer, fondly called, “the small one with the big voice”, rose to fame in 2006 with the hit single, “Never Felt This Way Before” from her debut album, Angel 4 Life (2008).
