He said indigenous population in most European countries is going extinct by the action of gays and lesbians and the earlier Ghana stopped their activities, the better for all.

“For you all to participate in it, count me out of Ghana,” the Speaker of Parliament said.

“I will prefer to join my Maker than to live. That is me. I am a Catholic and pro-life. I will not do anything that will end the world because God says the world is eternal. Until He comes back we cannot do that to end the world.

“They have the repercussions in their country and I can tel you that in the next 50 years, there will be no indigenous European in the world.”
