According to him, KKD is an Ashanti man whose culture prevents him embracing homosexuality.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019ve advised KKD not to allow his son come to Ghana now\u2026if he decides to come now, there are three things that will happen to him; he cannot enjoy life; first thing is, he cannot marry because it\u2019s against our law. Our marriage ordinance prohibits it. Secondly, he cannot also enjoy any sexual relationship because the law will not allow you have anal sex. He will be monitored. Thirdly, our brothers in the Islamic world hate lesbianism and gayism with some level of passion and if he dares go to the north, he will not have it easy. His father is a celebrity and once he has come out, he will find it difficult to enjoy his rights. So that\u2019s why I advised KKD not to allow his son come into the country now, he should stay in London and enjoy himself,\u2019 he said<\/p>\n<p>The Private legal practitioner continued by saying; \u2018I thought KKD shouldn\u2019t have commented on the issue. He should have just kept quiet because he being an Ashanti man and knowing that his culture is against gayism, he shouldn\u2019t have commented on it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Monday, 6 November 2017 Source: Spyderlee Entertainment TV 2017-11-06 Maurice Ampaw &#13; &#13; Celebrity legal practitioner Lawyer Maurice Ampaw has waded into the ongoing brouhaha concerning ace media personality KKD\u2019s son\u2019s gay sexuality.
