General Secretary of the Christian Council of Ghana, Rev. Dr. Opuni-Frimpong has made a shocking revelation about a contract he’s being compelled to sign by some donor partners.
The respected Reverend who is known to always communicate the stance of the Christian council disclosed that some donor partners want to take advantage of members of the council to push the homosexuality agenda in Ghana.
In a sermon at the Mount Olivet Methodist Church in Dansoman, Rev. Opuni Frimpong noted that, the commission relies mainly on donor support and funding from some United Nations agencies to embark on most of their activities and projects.
“Christian council all these years have relied on foreign aid; our three story building office complex and all the programs we embark on come from foreigners including the United Nations and so there’s the dependency syndrome. They know we are over-reliant on them. So based on that I have been presented a document to sign.”
He explained that the document that was presented to him and pressure is being mounted on him to accept to be an ambassador for the acceptance of homosexuality in Ghana.
He detailed that the unsigned document requires him to embark on a media campaign sensitizing people about homosexuality and the need to accept gay folks in our society.
“From tomorrow I should jump from one media house in Ghana urging Ghanaians to embrace homosexuality because the world is now a global village and cultures are being exchanged”.
He also indicated that the contract also came with a good package. He said that he was promised wealth in abundance should he agree to sign the contract.
This is not the first time issues of accepting homosexuality have come to the fore.
Former President of Ghana, Atta-Mills in 2012 refused to kowtow to the wish of the UK Prime Minister despite the threat by the British government to cut aid to countries with anti-gay legislation.
The act of same sex union is frowned upon by Ghanaian culture thus the total rejection of the idea by the majority of Ghanaians.
When quizzed about whether or not he would accept the offer, Reverend Opuni-Frimpong, was vociferous against the acceptance of homosexuality by the congregation.
