Ghanaians tell the US Ambassador how they feel about homosexuality.<\/p>\n

The United States Ambassador to Ghana, Robert P. Jackson is under fire.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in an interview on \u201921 minutes\u2019 show with KKB he made some statements that Ghanaians didn’t agree with. These statements were about legalization of homosexuality in Ghana.<\/p>\n

His words<\/h4>\n

\u201cI believe that everyone should enjoy the same human rights and personally I believe that people are either born heterosexual or homosexual. It\u2019s not a lifestyle.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, on social media Ghanaians have shared their views on what the ambassador said about gay legalization in Ghana within the next 10 years.<\/p>\n

A lot of people were pissed and could not control their anger after watching the interview.<\/p>\n

Moreover, they believed the ambassador had no right to interfere with our culture and should mind his business.<\/p>\n

Also, others asked the ambassador to answer if God created Adam and Steve or He created Adam and Eve?<\/p>\n

However, a lot of people flagged the comments as \u2018blackmail\u2019 and so on.<\/p>\n

Watch the video that started the conversation<\/h5>\n
