Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has stated that President Nana Akufo-Addo lacks the courage to openly declare his stance on the anti-LGBTQ+ bill.

During an interview on Asempa FM on Wednesday, March 27, Asiedu Nketiah, also known as General Mosquito, suggested that the president’s reluctance to address the bill directly is a strategic manoeuvre to evade responsibility.

“The truth is that he doesn’t have the courage to say his position on the bill. That is why he wants to shift that responsibility to the judiciary or another person so he can later go and stand somewhere to say that he didn’t sign the bill. If he wanted to do something about the bill, he would have done it,” he stated.
