Ghanaian gospel musician Minister Thargh50 has come under intense criticism after making controversial comments about single mothers in a viral video.
In the widely circulated clip, the young musician criticised single mothers, accusing them of being overly selective in their choice of partners despite what he described as “baggage.”
His remarks quickly triggered strong reactions online, with many users expressing disappointment and outrage.
Minister Thargh50 went further to suggest that single mothers should consider accepting marriage proposals from men who are blind or mentally challenged, instead of pursuing relationships with wealthy men.

He argued that such women should “settle” and lower their expectations when it comes to relationships.
The comments have been widely condemned by social media users, advocacy groups, and sections of the public, who describe the statements as offensive and demeaning.
Critics argue that the remarks not only stigmatise single mothers but also show a lack of sensitivity toward persons living with disabilities.
Others have pointed out that public figures, particularly those in religious and inspirational spaces, have a responsibility to promote messages of respect, dignity, and inclusion.
The incident has reignited discussions about societal perceptions of single mothers and the language used in public discourse.
