“The issue in Ghana for marriages is that somehow, the system compels you to have a girlfriend. And it’s a very difficult thing. So, what do you do? When the whole society is moving in that direction?” he asked.
However, the finance minister Ken Ofori-Atta suggested that the alleged social issue can be resolved by classifying one’s spouse as a boyfriend or girlfriend.
“Now if you are able to define your wife as your girlfriend, you’ve solved the problem.
“It looks like just a statement, but I think it’s the heart of fidelity and a good society.
“So, let’s make our spouses our boyfriends and girlfriends, and we will have solved Ghana’s problem,” he added to the amusement of the audience.
