Ranking Member on Parliament's Defence and Interior Committee, Rev.
John Ntim Fordjour, has accused President John Dramani Mahama and the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of fostering what he terms as a blatant disregard for Ghana's cultural values.
His reaction follows a viral video showing two alleged foreign gay men kissing and celebrating what appears to be a wedding ceremony at Ghana's Independence Square, with the national flag visibly displayed in the background.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, 26 June, the Assin South MP described the act as a "desecration" of one of Ghana's most sacred national monuments. "Under Mahama & NDC, foreign gay couple boldly desecrate our national monuments: kiss under Independence Square flaunting Ghana flag," he wrote. "They're emboldened to defy the dignity and sanctity of our rich Ghanaian values right before our eyes." Rev.
