Former Chief Justice, Sophia Akuffo, has opined the Ghanaian customs are against same-sex marriage.
She was of the view that there was the need for us to preserve the country’s traditions and customs.
She was however quick to add that there was the need for respectful dialogue and inclusivity.
Speaking in an interview on Metro TV on December 25, 2023, the former Chief Justice opined that “As Ghanaians, we have our traditions, we have our traditional and customary practices, which certainly do not, as far as I know in almost 75 years of my age, include men marrying men.
“Therefore, I cannot accept the idea of men marrying men or women marrying women, as it goes against our cultural norms.”
“I have not been told that in my customs, men marry men, and therefore, I can also choose to marry a woman. You know, I have not come upon that, and I will not accept that either,” she said.
