Discussing the issue of rape on Adom TV, he suggested that, while rape victims are forced into the act, they tend to enjoy it midway through.
He has since been slammed by actresses Ama K Abebrese, Juliet Ibrahim, Lydia Forson and musicians EL and Joey B, as well as other Ghanaians.
Adding her voice, the Gender Minister said “there is no justification for him to make such a maligning statement on television or in private”.
