The religious beliefs of the Minority Leader of Ghana's Parliament, , who also serves as the Member of Parliament for Effutu, became a major topic of discussion over the past week.
Afenyo-Markin, as he has done in the past, proudly professed that he is a Catholic and a member of the Freemason fraternity, sparking widespread public debate.
The Catholic Church in Ghana has since issued two statements addressing his assertion-one through the Catholic Bishops' Conference and another through the Catholic Archdiocese of Accra both categorically stating that it is forbidden for Catholics to join the Freemason fraternity.
Amid these statements and counter-pronouncements, videos have emerged showing Afenyo-Markin proudly demonstrating his Catholic faith.
