Leading member of the ruling New Patriotic Party,Gabby Otchere Darko has waded into the debate on bannng Counsellor Luterrodt from appearing on Tv and radio programs.
The supposed counsellor on live TV to said; “every rape victim at a point in the process enjoys the act,” a statement that has since been met with the backlash it deserves.
Gabby has suggested to the Ghana Police Service to take immediate measures to invite and probe the self-styled counsellor on his comments.
In a tweet, Gabby Otchere Darko wrote; “May I suggest that the Police take immediate steps to “invite” Mr Lutterodt (and, please stop using the title Counsellor!) to interrogate him to provide further and better particulars as to how many of his own victims enjoyed being raped, as he so claims?”
Already, an online petition initiated by Ivy Prosper, a Ghanaian-Canadian TV host copied to the Ministry of Communications, National Communications Authority, and Ghana Psychology Council which sought to cancel the influence the self-acclaimed counsellor has garnered thousands of signatures.
The Gender Ministry has also petitioned the National Media Commission to ban counsellor Lutterodt from making appearances on any media house for programs.
As if the heat from his initial statement is not hot enough, the Counsellor went back on radio, in an interview with Andy Dosty to say:
“what is going on is not about me, people now are doing media ‘content-ship’ and we those who have the voice when we grant the option of interviews to relevant media houses and they make headlines then others will want to pick it up so they could make some small appearance with it”.
“If you watch the video and listen to the issue carefully, clearly put you can see that the statement is really a sensible statement from a defending educated elite spiritualist,” he stated.
