African Movie Academy Award winning Ghanaian actress Lydia Forson has found herself facing twitter backlash after she posted a controversial tweet to her page on Fathers Day.
In a tweet which has since been deleted, the “Keteke” actress said “I don’t see Mother’s begging and reminding everyone when it’s Mother’s day. We celebrate our mothers because we want to,not because they try to guilt us into it. So focus on being GOOD fathers and you don’t have to beg to be celebrated on Father’s day. #HappyFathersDay”
The post which was sent at 4:40am on a day which is supposed to be special for fathers who have been there for their families understandably did not go down well with people on the internet who bombarded her page with furious replies which then prompted the actress to make her account private.
Lydia Forson who is a self-acclaimed feminist and women advocate has a history with controversial posts mostly about men and other happenings in the country and this is just a case of deja-vu.
She deleted the post after the backlash but we have the screenshots.

Been saying this, Lydia Forson is a misandrist with daddy issues or poor choice in men issues.

Lydia Forson though ! It’s a good thing you blocked me and also protected your account. You figa say you be the only who get issues . Next time. Ask your mother to give you the direction to your fathers house and go attack him for not being there for you .

A simple “happy Father’s Day”. Just one line. Lydia Forson chose to make it all about herself once again. Make a mess of it & accuse people of lacking comprehension skills - deletes the tweet “she still stands by” - protect her account & go on to explain unendingly.
