Ghanaian legendary footballer, Michael Essien has thrown his weight behind the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community in Ghana.
In an Instagram post, he remarked that Ghana supports equality, hence the voice of the LGBT must also be heard.
“We see you, we hear you, we support you. Our LGBTQIA plus Community in Ghana #ghanasupportequality 🇬🇭🤝🏿“, he wrote.
Meanwhile, President Nana Addo has come out to say clearly that same-sex marriage would not happen under his Government.
“I have said it before, and let me stress it again, that it will not be under the Presidency of Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo that same-sex marriage will be legal,” he said Saturday.
Nana Addo made these comments at the installation of the 2nd Archbishop of the Anglican Church held in Asante Mampong.
