Comedian DKB has expressed dismay at a statement by CNN’s international correspondent, Christiane Amanpour, that Moesha Boduong fears for safety when she returns to Ghana.
Christiane Amanpour, in a statement, that went viral on Wednesday suggested Ghana is no longer a safe place for Moesha.
She was reacting to Ghanaians’ condemnation of Moesha after the socialite, in excerpts of a recent interview on Sex & Love Around The World series on CNN, stated that Ghana’s economy is so bad that women are compelled to have sexual affairs with men just to survive.
“As a woman and a journalist, I’m hurt and angry to see such an innocent woman condemned by the press and by many people on social media in this way. It’s to the point that Moesha is not sure she can return to Ghana safely,” she said.
But in a recorded video he broadcast on WhatsApp, DKB said, “I’m very disappointed in you for calling somebody who sleeps with married men courageous. Christiane Amanpour, if it had been your husband that Moesha was sleeping with, will you call Moesha courageous? Adultery is frowned upon by the law in Ghana and America so why will you call somebody who sleeps with people’s husbands courageous. Really?”
“Who has time to attack Moesha really? We have laws in this country, we are guarded by laws. This is not a jungle, the image you have been painting of us, poor people living with houseflies on their nose; we are not in a jungle. We have laws so nobody will attack Moesha, for what? Who will attack Moesha when Obinim is busy speaking Chinese for us to hear,” he added.
