“Marriage is between a man and a woman” – Former Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo’s take on LGBTQ
Sophia Akuffo, a former chief justice, has stated her strong opposition to same-sex marriage being legal in Ghana.
Speaking on Starr FM in Accra, which Adomonline.com is listening to, the retired CJ stressed how out of step such behavior is with Ghanaian culture.
She said she would be prepared to take part in any public demonstrations against the legalization of same-sex unions in the nation.
“Marriage is between a man and a woman. If individuals wish to commit to each other for life and happen to be of the same gender, they shouldn’t label it as marriage; they should use another term” Madam Akuffo stated.
The former Chief Justice questioned the attempt to impose unfamiliar cultural norms on Ghana.
“If you want to identify as something else, that’s one thing, but don’t impose your beliefs on others. Why should someone believe their culture is superior to yours?” she quizzed.
