Media personality Ola Michael described the viral moment when a South African gay couple kissed at Accra’s Independence Square as a shade to Ghana.
The couple, Rue and Lue, shared affectionate photos that quickly spread across social media.
Ola Michael called the act “a shade” to Ghana and said it was an intentional insult to the country’s culture and values.
He argued that the couple used the kiss to challenge Ghanaians’ strong stance against LGBTQ+ relationships.
According to Ola, public displays like this undermine Ghana’s moral standards and disrespect national symbols.
He believes it was not just about love but a planned statement to provoke reactions.
The incident has since sparked heated arguments online.
Some Ghanaians support Ola’s views, saying the couple’s actions crossed a line.
Others believe love should not be policed and see the backlash as another sign of intolerance.
This moment has reignited debates about LGBTQ+ rights in Ghana, highlighting deep divides on acceptance and freedom of expression.
As discussions rage, many wonder if Ghana will soften its position or continue pushing back against such bold statements.
