Controversial Ghanaian relationship commentator George Lutterodt, popularly known as Counsellor Lutterodt, has issued a public apology following widespread backlash over comments many described as inciting and offensive.
The outspoken counsellor, who is no stranger to controversy, came under heavy criticism after remarks he made during a media appearance triggered public outrage and heated debate across social media and traditional media platforms.
In a statement addressing the issue, George Lutterodt acknowledged that his comments had caused anger and disappointment among sections of the public. He expressed regret over the situation and apologized to those who felt offended by his statements.
“I apologise to everyone who was hurt or disturbed by my comments. It was never my intention to incite anyone or create division,” he reportedly said while responding to the controversy.
The incident quickly went viral, with critics accusing the counsellor of crossing the line with provocative commentary, while others argued that his words were taken out of context.
Despite the apology, the situation has once again reignited conversations about responsibility in public commentary, especially from influential media personalities whose views can shape public opinion.
Over the years, George Lutterodt has built a reputation for bold and often polarising views on relationships, marriage, and social issues, frequently sparking national debates.
While some supporters have accepted his apology, others insist that public figures must exercise greater caution with their words, particularly when discussing sensitive topics.
The controversy serves as yet another reminder of the power of media statements in the digital age, where comments can quickly spread and ignite intense public reactions.
