President Akufo-Addo has described as 'baseless' reports that he has legalised same-sex marriage in the country.
A statement released on Saturday and signed by the Director of Communications at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, indicated that: "the attention of the Office of the President has been drawn to comments made by the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, as reported by the online news outlet, The Pulse, to the effect that same-sex marriage has been approved by President Akufo-Addo.
Speaking at the NDC's health/unity walk, on Saturday, 28th April, 2018, in Kumasi, the NDC General Secretary is reported to have stated that "Nana Addo says men will marry men, and women will marry women."
This is nothing but a baseless and vile fabrication, by no less a person than the General Secretary of the leading opposition party in Ghana. For the avoidance of doubt, President Akufo-Addo has NEVER stated anywhere that, under his presidency, "men will marry men, and women will marry women"
Indeed, the President remains focussed on delivering on his mandate, and improving on the quality of lives of the Ghanaian people. It will NOT be under his Presidency that same-sex marriage will be legalised in
Ghana.
We will neither ask for an apology or retraction from the NDC General Secretary, who, obviously, is still stuck in the age of the politics of lies, deceit and propaganda, which was rejected decisively by discerning Ghanaians in the 2016 general elections.
We will rather appeal to Ghanaians to, once again, ignore the falsehoods of the NDC, and urge Mr. Asiedu Nketiah to concentrate his energies on uniting his divided and discredited party.

These LIES from NDC & Asiedu Nketia is gradually gaining hurting NPP in the minds of the uneducated Ghanaian. LET Nana Addo & NPP come out BOLDLY with a statement, NOT the counter fire service method!
Help me worldwide to tell asiedu nketia to stop vaporizing. Otherwise he will one day end his life in jail. Correction and improvement we need in our mother land, Ghana please leaders
lazy communication bureau at flagstaff. what is the president stand on gay marriage. what is the president stand on Theresa May arise to help common wealth country practice gay. lesbians and gay marriage is about our culture, Christianity, Islamic. is not about Npp and Ndc football. As a president of Ghana, you either be for it or against it. As a leader, your stand must be clear. I am not proud of My president,who seems not take a stand. Is silent means consent Mr President.
Exhibit well saying that mosqueto nketia should be arrested fast for saying things the president has not said. ARREST ASSREST HIM.
Asiedu Nketia looks credible and a man of integrity than Akuffo Addow on two very sensitive national issues, firstly on the so called u.s. military base which akuffo addow has not got any mandate from ghanaians to implement and second about this gay marriage thing which makes him look like a monkey puppet whenever he meets European heads of states or their
i will blame nana addo for all these. he was not bold enough to say that it will never happen in our country but frather admitted that it is bound to happen. he will not be the one to make it happen but has a role to play in it. he has given these ev1l men a good weapon to use against him. could it be that there was some external influence on our elections to get him elected?
I'll one day teach this ***barred word*** bushman Nketia sense papa. I'LL FU.ck his a.sshole with a broomstick!!!
It is time for government to pass law to prosecute people who make unfounded allegations to curb the unscrupulous behaviour of people like Asiedu Nketia and his NDC cohorts who are burnt on making Ghana chaotic. We need people who will make constructive suggestions that will bring progress and development. In fact Asiedu Nketia should be arrested and cautioned for making such irresponsible comments.
Ndc are too desperate. Mahama is even more desperate. If ever these bunch of ***barred word*** get back to power, Ibrahim Mahsma will collapse Ghana. God forbid.
I would marry Asiedu Nkatia and fuck his ***barred word*** like no other. ***barred word*** secretary.
