Like most African Anglican prelates, Akrofi is widely regarded as a conservative in the Anglican Communion and has been involved in the Anglican realignment. The Church of the Province of West Africa was one of the first to break communion with the Episcopal Church of the United States over the question of admitting non-celibate homosexual clergy. He is a supporter of the Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans and of the Anglican Church in North America. He attended the Global Anglican Future Conference, in Jerusalem, in June 2008. ==References==
