Former Minister of Education, Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh, has accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of attempting to introduce content related to homosexuality into the basic school curriculum during their time in office.

Speaking to New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters at the conclusion of the ‘Bantama Big Walk 2024’ over the weekend, Dr. Opoku Prempeh, also known as NAPO, specifically implicated Mr Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the former Deputy Minister in charge of Tertiary Education, led the effort to draft this curriculum.

According to NAPO, during his review of the handing-over notes from the previous Education Minister, he discovered that a new curriculum had been proposed to replace the old one, which allegedly included lessons on same-gender sexual activities for school children.

"The person who led this project was Okudzeto Ablakwa," he alleged.

NAPO further claimed that certain Islamic imams and Christian pastors were enlisted by the NDC to promote LGBTQ+ advocacy in schools, travelling from community to community with the support of teachers.

"They taught schoolchildren how people of the same sex should kiss, how men should kiss other men, and how women should kiss other women.

They even went as far as teaching how a mother could engage in sexual activities with her daughter.

These things happened right here in Ghana," NAPO alleged.

The NPP’s running mate suggested that this alleged agenda was one of the reasons former President John Mahama lost the 2016 general election.
