Kofi Akpaloo, leader of the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG) and a presidential aspirant, has ignited a heated debate following a controversial statement about the conditions under which he would allow his daughter to marry.
In a recent interview on Kingdom FM, Mr. Akpaloo stated that any man wishing to marry his daughter must first impregnate her. He explained that this requirement is his way of ensuring that the prospective son-in-law is committed and capable of fathering children, thereby preventing potential issues related to childbirth after marriage.
Mr. Akpaloo acknowledged that his views might be seen as unconventional and could provoke criticism, but he maintained his position, arguing that fathering a child before marriage would be a clear sign of the man’s seriousness and long-term commitment to his daughter.
The politician’s remarks have sparked a wave of reactions, with many people expressing their opinions on social media and other platforms, either condemning or supporting his stance.
