A Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho considers President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s response on homosexuality as a subtle move to welcome wealthy gays into the country for a purpose.
Koku, who believe gays are “influential” and “rich” people, will help the president fund "his free SHS policy which is already in danger”.
“The President is desperate; he is looking for money to fulfill his promises...His one million dollars per constituency, his free SHS education, and one-district one-factory among others. Now the President is prepared to wine and dine with anybody at all to make money,” he emphatically stated in an interview on Neat FM’s, morning show dubbed ‘Ghana Montie’.
Koku’s comment follows what some Ghanaians believe is a clear indication from President Akufo-Addo that the country's position on homosexuality could change if there is strong advocacy.
Speaking to Aljazeera’s Jane Dutton, the president said the country's culture and tradition for now does not allow the legalization of homosexuality, but was quick to add that if public opinion changes, the law may just be amended.
“This is a social, cultural issue, I don’t believe that in Ghana so far, a sufficiently strong coalition has emerged which is having that impact on public opinion that will say ‘change it, let’s now have a new paradigm in Ghana.’
“At the moment, I don’t feel, I don’t see that in Ghana there is that strong current of opinion that is saying this is something we need to deal with. It is not so far a matter that is on the agenda,” Nana Addo added.
But the NDC deputy Chief Scribe said the president’s response, which was quite deliberate, shows his administration is cash-strapped.
“There’s no money to fulfill their promises so they have to fashion out other means to get the money to undertake what they have earlier assured the people of Ghana. The president doesn’t care anymore where the money will come from,” he told the host, Kwasi Aboagye.

I blame NPP.You have delayed prosecution in the name of Special Prosecutor. Kuffuor jailed them without any special prosecutor so why has it delayed whiles these nation wreckers are hidden our monies. This is what would happened. Rise up and begin prosecution so you can retrieve some of the money. These thiiiiiveeees are still spewing ***barred word*** because they are walking free.Opuni and others are still walking as free people upon all the evidences you have on them.I am getting angry at my own elephant family. It's long overdue ah why.If two or three of them had been jailed, this fuuuuulish spewing would have stopped.
When there was Dumsor in Ghana your John Mahama went to USA and slept in the house of a gay activist and who knows what he did with him. He was a guest speaker at his book launch and actually invited him to Ghana. When we have a deputy general secretary with water in the head like KoKu.....
I now understand the position of Dr Bawumia on Koku. Because, the Dr. does not see the need to respond to a person in the caliber of Koku. Koku has no academic pedigree that can court the Dr Bawumiah's attention. Mon*keys play by sizes.
I have realized that apart from politics, he knows nothing. I have googled for his background but found nothing on the web, apart from being a political a=n*imal.
THIS ***barred word***-I-TY WILL ONLY COME FROM A BLOATED AND AKPETESHE DRINKER LIKE KOKU ANYIDOHO. A TWERP AND DEAD BEAT MORON LIKE KOKU WILL NOT LET PASS THIS OPPORTUNITY TO COME AND EXPOSE HIS CRASS IGNORANCE AND FEEBLE MIND. YOU BETTER CHECK YOUR OBESITY AND YOUR PERSONAL HYGIENE INSTEAD OF DABBLING IN SOMETHING THAT IS FAR FAR BEYOND YOUR COMPREHENSION. AB*AFUNU.
koku never talk sense...its in his d.n.a--foolisshness
This guy spews garbage from his "backside" No wonder NDC lost the election.
***barred word*** paa nie?
I knew this fffooool would come out to spew tra$h...one use.less human on the continent
