Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin has expressed dismay about the activities of Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) people in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Bagbin stressed that he would not partake in any task that seeks to legalise the activities of LGBTQ people in Ghana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor you all to participate in it, count me out of Ghana because I will prefer to join my maker than to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat is me, I am a Catholic and I will not do anything that will end the world because God says the world is eternal until he comes back we cannot do that to end the world,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill 2021, also known as the anti-LGBTQI+ Bill, is currently under review by the Parliamentary Select Committee on Constitutional, Legal, and Parliamentary Affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Committee seeks to provide for human sexual rights and Ghanaian family values while seeking to prohibit the activities of LGBTQ in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bill was proposed by some eight MPs of both the Majority and Minority caucuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking at a press conference in Tamale as part of Parliament\u2019s 30th Anniversary Celebration, the Speaker of Parliament said western countries which are advocating the rights of homosexuals, are already facing backlash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2026They have the repercussions in their country and I can tell you that in the next 50 years, there will be no indigenous European in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Bagbin noted that the Bill will be passed under his tenure as Speaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Constitutional and Legal Affairs Committee of Parliament has recommended that the House passes the controversial Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Committee, the majority of Ghanaians are in favour of the legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
