Former British High Commissioner to Ghana Jon Benjamin has in a quick reaction clapped back at award-winning Ghanaian blogger Ameyaw Debrah for making fun of the looks of a social media user.
A photo of the fair young man with diastema has gone viral on social media and was receiving a lot of reactions. One of the captions which said his teeth-gap is like the English flag saw blogger Ameyaw Debrah share it on his timeline as well.

Ameyaw Debrah, in a tweet earlier today mentioned Jon Benjamin asking him if he agrees that the diastema of the unidentified man is like that of the flag of England.

In a reaction, Jon Benjamin, who didn’t appear to see the fun in this quoted Ameyaw Debrah, telling him it was wrong to do so.
Jon Benjamin added that making fun of someone’s appearance is offensive and unnecessary.
“@ameyaw112 – no, I don’t agree. I think making public fun of people’s natural appearance is a cheap shot, offensive and unnecessary – and it’s beneath you to amplify it,” he said in a tweet.
.@ameyaw112 – no, I don’t agree.

Ameyaw Debrah after probably realizing the truth in what Jon Benjamin wrote responded saying: “I agree.”
A lot of tweeps also supported the former High Commissioner.
