Ghanaian rapper, Okyeame Kwame, has clarified that he is not associated with the secret society known as Freemasonry, contrary to speculations.

While he has dedicated time to studying the organization, he emphasized that he is not a member.

Okyeame Kwame expressed his belief that Freemasonry contributes positively to society by preparing youth for future roles.

Addressing misconceptions about Freemasonry, including rumors of occult practices like blood-drinking and rituals for wealth, Okyeame Kwame stated that his research did not substantiate these claims.

In an interview with 3FM, Okyeame Kwame praised Freemasonry as a commendable institution, contrary to its negative portrayal in some circles.

"I am not a Freemason, but the idea of joining has crossed my mind. I've invested considerable effort in studying its essence. I've delved into numerous books and engaged with several Freemasons. It's not at all like the world portrays it, as some kind of occult where blood-drinking, sacrifices, and initiations occur.

"Based on my research, I view it as a collective of men shaping boys into responsible societal leaders, offering support in education and ethics. It's said that even those with a history of murder are barred from Freemason membership," he told Blakk Rasta.

Meanwhile, several distinguished Ghanaian personalities, such as former President John Agyekum Kufuor and Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, hold prominent positions within the Freemason society.
