But the NPP communicator in response said it is only someone who is into the abuse of the drug who will claim Nana Addo is in the process of legalizing homosexuality.
He stated that "It is not true, Nana Addo will not do such a thing. If not Tramadol abuse who will say such a thing?

He has overdosed Tramadol and is suffering the side effects and saying such things."
