Media personality Kwaku Osei Korankye Asiedu, popularly known as KOKA, has criticized Director of Diaspora Affairs at the Jubilee House, Kofi Okyere-Darko (KOD), for a post he shared on Facebook about some South African gay personalities.
KOD shared a video of two men kissing, labeling it with the question " “Who are they?”.
KOKA, however, dismissed KOD’s post as a camouflage.
“This is not interrogation, this is promotion,” KOKA said during an appearance on Movement TV on June 25, 2025.
“You don’t work for the FBI. You’re not investigating anything. This was a subtle endorsement using your position and platform.”
He has called on President John Mahama to immediately sack KOD, describing his actions as “shameful and embarrassing.”
“KOD must be dismissed from Jubilee House,” he insisted.
Days ago, two South African men, identified as Rue and Lue, stirred reactions on social media after sharing photos of themselves kissing under Ghana’s Independence Arch.
They adorned themselves in matching red-themed outfits, as they were basking in each other's love under one of Ghana’s symbolic national monuments.
One of the men was light-skinned and the other was dark-skinned.
Their kissing moment under the Independence Arch drew reactions from many social media users.
While some social media users supported the couple’s stance on LGBTQ+ visibility, many others have expressed disappointment and outrage over the location they chose for their photos.
They argue that the Independence Arch is not merely a site for tourism, but a powerful symbol that should be shielded from what they deem as "provocative" messages.
Ningo-Prampram MP and Minister for Communications, Sam Nartey George, has strongly condemned the act, describing it as a blatant display of homosexuality and desecration of Ghana’s national symbols.
“The disrespect of our national symbols is despicable to say the least,” he wrote on X, Thursday June 26 2025.
