I believe those are the same processes that will bring about changes in our situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president, however, pointed out that: \u201cAt the moment, I don\u2019t feel and I don\u2019t see that in Ghana, there is that strong current of opinion that will say: \u2018This is something that we need even deal with\u2019. It\u2019s not, so far, a matter which is on the agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Kwaw Kesse on his Twitter account wondered why President Akufo-Addo wont lead a campaign for the legalization of marijuana in Ghana and rather said homosexuality is bound to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, Abodam added that homosexuality shouldn\u2019t be entertained in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a moral wrong for a man to sleep with a fellow man. Even animals don\u2019t do such. Have they finished legalizing marijuana\u2026?\u201d he queried.<\/p>\n<p>However, some of the Ghanaian musicians such as Yaa Pono and Wanlov also disclosed their views on the homosexuality issues.<\/p>\n<p>See the posts below: <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\" xml:lang=\"en\">Have they finished legalizing marijuana ??? https:\/\/t.co\/j9mdDPJFNY<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Katiboom (@kwawkese) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kwawkese\/status\/935071609790058496?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 27, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\" xml:lang=\"en\">It&#8217;s a moral wrong for a man to sleep wit a fellow man.
