Popular Nigerian fashion designer, Yomi Makun better known as Yomi Casual has repeated his wife’s claim that he is not gay.
Yomi Casual’s wife, Grace took to social media on Friday to refute claims that her husband is gay and challenged those making the allegation to prove it.
She wrote: “With the permission of my husband, I am daring the so-called blogger and anyone of you who insinuate to know too much to bring out proofs that confirm Yomi ‘gay’ as speculated without fact by your devilish camps within 24 hours.”
Reiterating the earlier position of his wife, Yomi Casual took to his Instagram page to call out those spreading the rumours.
According to him, friends and family have reached out to him, asking him to ignore the rumours but he has decided to speak up to save his reputation.
He wrote, “It is always easy for friends and family to reach out and always say, “Ignore them… Silence is golden…” they will get tired and move on to the next person.” But I am the one wearing the shoes, and I am the one feeling all pains and damages to my reputation as a father, husband, and businessman.”

He went on to assure his fans that being gay has never crossed his mind and asked those behind the rumour to desist.
“Coming out of church today and having reflected on all the lies against me, I want to say I am not too good a Christian who would turn and take a slap on the other cheek. Enough is enough. Should I Omoniyi, Olorunyomi Makun be gay or nurse any single idea of sleeping with a fellow man, may death take me before my time, may everything that God has blessed me with be taken away from me. May I not prosper in anything I lay my hands to do. May failure become my portion in everything that concerns me till death,” he wrote.
He also had a word for the rumour mongers, saying he will eventually be vindicated by God before cursing them.
He said, “On the other hand, if these are fabrications borne out of envy, jealousy, wickedness, and insecurities, I pray for the same God to vindicate me. May those of you who enjoy and share such lies against me be also entertained with the pain you bring to my family. May that thing that has kept you jobless remain in your lives till death. Today, i pronounce death, doom, and destruction on anyone who would continue to incite lies designed to assassinate my character. I also pronounce the same on those who fall and fly with it without confirmation,” he wrote.
