Come & test if you think I’m gayy – TikToker Deaconess Abakoma to his critics

Ghanaian
TikTok
sensation,
Deaconess
Abokoma,
has
responded
to
growing
accusations
about
his
sexuality,
due
to
his
choice
to
wear
women’s
clothing
in
his
popular
videos.

In
a
recent
interview
with
ZionFelix,
Abokoma
addressed
the
rumours
head-on,
denying
that
he
is
gay
and
challenged
his
critics
to
“come
and
practice”
with
him
if
they
truly
believe
he
is.

The
entertainer,
known
for
his
comedic
and
often
controversial
content,
made
it
clear
that
the
accusations
are
not
new
to
him.

He
acknowledged
that
he
has
heard
these
claims
multiple
times
but
insisted
they
are
baseless.

“If
you
think
I’m
gay,
come
and
try
me,”
he
said,
adding
that
critics
would
soon
discover
there
is
no
“space
behind
his
back”
for
them,
making
a
bold
and
unorthodox
statement
to
discredit
the
rumours.

Abokoma
also
revealed
that
he
has
received
threats
from
individuals
who
have
vowed
to
take
action
against
him
if
Ghana’s
anti-LGBTQ+
bill
is
passed
into
law.

The
bill,
which
is
still
under
discussion,
seeks
to
criminalize
LGBTQ+
activities
in
the
country,
raising
concerns
for
those
perceived
to
be
part
of
the
community.
