Lawyer for the New Patriotic Party Ayikoi Otoo says the Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection gave her blessing to gay marriage with the liberal stance she took during her vetting by the Appointments Committee of Parliament.
Speaking on Blakk Rasta’s Taxi Driver show on Hitz FM, the former Attorney General, said Nana Oye Lithur did not come across as someone prepared to fight the canker of homosexuality crippling into the Ghanaian society.
When asked what she would if her son came asking for her blessing to marry another man, Lithur responded “It is personal.”
That response, Otoo insisted, smacked of somebody endorsing gay marriage in Ghana.
“By saying this, Nana has given her blessing to an illegality- gay marriage- in Ghana,” Ayikoi Otoo intimated.
