Says Christians Will Not Vote For Akufo-Addo
Because Of His Inability To Condemn Homosexuality
News Desk Report
Alhaji Moctar Bamba, the National Organizer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), has told close associates why he has been asking Muslims not to vote for the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Alhaji Bamba told one of them (name withheld) that he (Moctar Bamba) has come to the realization that many Christians have decided not to vote for Nana Akufo-Addo, the NPP flagbearer, in the 2012 elections, because of his concealed support for homosexuality in Ghana.
He explained to his associates that Nana Akufo-Addo’s inability to condemn openly, the practice of homosexuality in Ghana, has angered many Christians into deciding not to vote the NPP, for fear that in the unlikely event of he (Akufo Addo) winning the 2012 elections, he would legalized homosexuality in Ghana. In another development, Alhaji Moctar Bamba has told his associates that, his call on Muslims not to vote the NDC, was as result of a conversation he had with the flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo.
“There is no way Nana Addo will openly condemn his statement”, Alhaji Moctar Bamba had said to his close associate.
It is, however, on record that over 82% of Ghanaians abhor homosexuality, according to the 2010 population census 82% was arrived at by the tabulation of the percentages of the various religious groups in Ghana.
These are groups who have openly come out to condemn the practice of homosexuality.
It would be recalled that, when the late President Atta-Mills declared that homosexuality will never be legalized under his watch, the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) took him on, as to whether he was expressing the wishes of majority of Ghanaians.
It is also on record that, unlike the late President Mills and the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who have made their views known, the NPP flagbearer, Mr. Williams Addo-Dankwa Akufo-Addo has still not commented on this oddity, but has the moral courage to defend his supposedly sex lover, Ursula Owusu. Below is the breakdown of 2010 Population Census And Why Alhaji Moctar Bamba Seems Very Worried.
Of the 24.65 million population of Ghana, 28.3% are of the Pentecostal/Charismatic religious affiliation. 18.4% are Protestants; 17.6%, Islam; 13.1%, Catholic; 11.4%, Other Christian; 5.3% did not belong to any religion and 5.2%, Traditionalist.
