Publicising yourself endangers your life – Crossdresser James Brown advises colleagues

Crossdresser James Brown has broken his silence following the death of Abuja Area Mama, a fellow crossdresser.

Early on Thursday morning, Area Mama was discovered dead outside the Katampe-Mabushi motorway in Abuja.

Pictures of the crossdresser went viral, showing him with bruises and scratches all over his face and body. His possessions were likewise strewn all over the place.

Brown urged his coworkers to refrain from going out in public while dressed in the opposing sex’s clothing in an Instagram post. They might be endangering their lives, he said.

He also mourned Area Mama while wondering why he wore a woman’s outfit and was “in search of customers on the streets of Abuja”.

Brown said his crossdressing is only for content and movie creations, adding that he has never “stood on the road my entire life”.

“This Area Mama that happened was so quick. It was so quick that I did not even get enough time to see this boy. And I do not know who dey advise am. You don blow small. The work you dey do suppose reduce,” he said in a mixture of Pidgin and English.

“… He is dead already. All I know is that most of you who are dressing as a woman, standing on the road, your life is at risk. I have never dressed like a woman and stood on the road my entire life. It has never been my caution.

“My drama queen is to do Instagram content or shoot movies. Everybody represents different things… Stay safe out there.”
