The National Association of Nzema Students – Ghana (NANS-GH) has strongly condemned a recent statement by Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo, alleging that "Some Nzema culture supports homosexuality."

The organization described the claims as misleading and disrespectful to the cultural values of the Nzema people.

Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo, in an interview with JoyNews on LGBTQ on March 2, 2024, argued that some Ghanaian Cultures subscribe to the practice including the Ga and Nzema.

A statement by NANS-GH on Wednesday, March 6, emphasized the Nzema culture, known for its rich traditions and historical significance, does not align with the inaccuracies put forth by Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo.

The organization highlighted that their cultural practices are based on respect, understanding, and a celebration of diversity, and any misrepresentation threatens the integrity of their identity.

NANS-GH demanded an immediate and unqualified apology from Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo for her misguided comments.

They stressed the importance of a public acknowledgment of the inaccuracies in her statement to rectify the harm caused by the dissemination of misinformation.

The statement signed by the association's president, Obed Kofi Lannister, called upon Nzema traditional rulers to publicly denounce Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo's statement.

They emphasized the influential role of traditional leaders in preserving the sanctity of Nzema's cultural heritage and ensuring the accurate representation of Nzema's values.

NANS-GH reaffirmed its commitment to fostering inclusivity and respect within the Nzema community, encouraging open dialogue grounded in truth and understanding while remaining vigilant in protecting the reputation and authenticity of Nzema culture.
