Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim Career, Occupation, Life History, Story, Movies, Background
Biography, Wikipedia: Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim is a Nigerian born Nollywood lesbian movie film producer, screenwriter and filmmaker, who made 2020 BBC list of the '100 Women of the Year'.
Uya Ikpe-Etim was born in 1989 and she is co-founder of the production company Hashtag Media House.
Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim has since 2011, worked to give voice to the Nigeria's minority communities, especially the LGBTQ community there. The rights of the LGBT community in Africa are severely persecuted, and Nigeria and its film industry are no exception: 'in Nollywood homosexual characters are ridiculed and portrayed as predators, moved by economic interests or under the influence of cults and spells and often end up being punished for their actions or saved by the church. Those films that feature the LGBTQ community in Nigeria, usually feature homosexual men.'
In August 2017, Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim gave a talk at Eastern Mediterranean University on the importance of asking questions.
Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim and Pamela Adie came to prominence in Nigeria in 2020 after the production of the film Ìfé. The film 'Ife' was Uya Ikpe-Etim's directorial debut and tells a love story between two women. Ìfé is not the first lesbian-themed film to be produced in Nigeria, but it is the first to show such a relationship normally, without prejudice or stereotypes. Indeed the producer, director and actors in the lead roles are all members of Nigeria's LGBT community. Ikpe-Etim identifies as queer. However, the production had to face the National Board of Film and Video Censors, which went so far as to threaten its creators with prison sentences for "encouraging homosexuality" in a country where same-sex marriage was banned by law since 2014. In fact, to avoid censorship, the film was released abroad in October 2020, at the Toronto LGBT Film Festival. It was released ultimately on the streaming platform ehtvnetwork.com. It was screened at the Leeds International Film Festival in November 2020.

Watch Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim Video InterviewUyaiedu Ikpe-Etim Opens Up To Her Mother That She Is A Lesbian
Narrating how she came out to her Catholic mother that she is a lesbian and her mum's reaction on 'Coming Out Day', Uyai Ikpe Etim through her Twitter account Asang edem—
"I (officially) came out to my (Catholic) mother. I watched her as her heart broke again, probably thinking, so the rumors are true. This thing that you are will send me to an early grave, she said. Come, see where you should bury me when I die, she pointed.
My heart broke too. But I recognised this for what it was. The universal language of African parents - Emotional blackmail.
I'm not an unholy thing, I said. I am not a sin. In spite of how hurt I am that you said that, I won't accept it. No be me go kill you.
Immediately alarmed, she said - I would never call you a sin, you are my child. I love you. You will always be my baby but -No buts. You say you love me, then love me. She talk her own, I talk my own sef. Finally - so one day, you will bring home a wife? Yeah, most likely.
Hmmmm. She heaved. Hmmmm. I heaved too. Mine was of relief. I am officially out to my mother."
"It's Coming Out Day and I'm thinking back to my most significant coming out experience. It's my most significant one because it was the one I was most scared of.
I remember that I used to tell my friends of my mother's love. I had never in my life doubted her love for me and that was what scared me the most. I was now at a place where I could test that love and I didn't want to. I didn't want anything to shake my confidence in her love.
I carried on until someone outed me to her. And when she asked me directly, I knew I couldn't lie to her.
My mother might not understand many things but one thing she understands and expresses so well is love.
I'm forever grateful that my mother chose to love me in spite of her lack of understanding of my identity. She had so many questions that didn't make it into this tweet and above all, she listened. She was interested in my life.
That's love.
Happy Coming Out Day, queer sibs.

Nse Ikpe-Etim Reacts As Her Lesbian Sister, Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim And 2 Other LGBTQ Gay Nigerians Share Their Coming Out Experience
Three Nigerians, who are part of the LGBTQ community, have shared their Coming Out experience and how their loved ones received the news.
Bibi, Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim, and Biodun featured in a documentary with the loved ones who they opened up to about their sexuality.
Biodun, born male but who now identifies as a transwoman, first came out as transgender to a friend named Esco. She also appeared on the show with her brother.
Speaking, Bidoun's brother recalled when Biodun came out as trans to him, saying: "I already knew that all you needed was love, which I gave you from back in school.
"Before you started thinking of being a trans woman, I had already been calling you 'my daughter'. Back in school when your pronouns were still he and him, I was still calling you 'my daughter' and no one around us knew why I was doing that."
Biodun's brother added: "If being a transwoman could make her happy, then she should go ahead with it.
"So, when she came out to me, I didn't even... I felt happy for her and I'm happy because she Coming Out to me means that I'm worthy enough for her to tell me what she feels."
Filmmaker, Uyaiedu, said she came out to her sister, actress Nse Ikpe-Etim, and she wishes she reacted in a different way.
Speaking, Nse said when her sister came out to her, she was trying to "deal with it."
She added: "In retrospect, I wish I had responded differently. I wish I had given her a hug and said nothing else.
"I guess maybe that, I wouldn't have said the wrong things."
As for Bibi, she said her brother, who she came out to, was very supportive and told her that he knew all along.
Bibi's brother recounted the moment, saying: "I remember laughing because, for me, in my head it was like, 'are you serious? You don't even need to come out to me. Be with who you want to be, it's OK, I don't care'."
Asked how they felt about the response they got when they came out, their answers varied.
Biodun said of her brother's response: "I think his response was perfect because it made me feel valid."
But Uyaiedu said Nse could have responded in a better way.
She said: "I wish that she had responded differently. I wish that even if she wasn't sure what to do, I wish she'd asked more questions. That would have made me feel that she was interested in what I had said to her."
Bibi said she was OK with how her brother reacted "because he was very nice".
Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim Celebrates Lesbian Visibility Day
"Happy Lesbian Visibility Day to me and all my lesbian friends!
Your queerness is beautiful.
Your love is valid.
Your existence is a blessing.
#lesbianvisibilityday #lesbianvisibilityweek #lesbianvisibility"
Uyaiedu Ikpe-Etim was part of the protesters alongside her Lesbian lover, Amara and other LGBTQ members in Lagos State in October 2020.
"When I said I'm here for LGBTQ+ lives, e been get why.
The cishet men who attacked my lover today helped me prove my point. I'm fully convinced that you people deserve the Nigeria you have. You come out to fight oppression, yet you still want to oppress, can you not see how you deserve the country you have?!
And if you think that you are free while some of us aren't, then you obviously don't know anything about freedom and you aren't even ready for the freedom that you are demanding.
Ah well, the queers were out again. We were in your faces. We will dismantle all your oppressive systems one after the other and we will exist as loudly as we can. Because this fight is as much our fight as it is yours and we refuse to be excluded or erased.
Because las las, na gay we gay, we no kill person.
#endsars #endswat #endpolicebrutality #sarsmustend #queerlivesmatter #endhomophobiainnigeria"
"Just to be clear - I didn't walk and march under the scorching sun for you cisgendered men; so stop messaging me to say, this is not the fight. This is my own fight. I'm fighting for Queer lives and for women because we get harassed by SARS for completely different reasons.
My femme friends are harassed simply for being femme. A SARS official has harassed my friends and I, simply because I told him he couldn't sit in my laps.
So, please miss me with that nonsense. I'm here for Queers and for women. Because if the tables were turned, many of you won't come out for us.

She also wondered why a 30+ woman who is comfortable, will be screaming about abuse. Amara also said this is why she is big on “self” because people who don’t love themselves, can’t love someone else.
