Ghana President Delays Decision on Anti-Gay Bill

The President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, has decided to delay his final decision on a controversial anti-gay bill that has been circulating in the country. The bill, officially known as the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill, seeks to criminalize LGBTQ+ activities and impose harsh penalties on individuals caught engaging in such acts.

Supporters of the bill argue that it is necessary to uphold Ghanaian cultural and moral values, while opponents claim that it violates basic human rights and promotes discrimination and violence against the LGBTQ+ community.

President Akufo-Addo’s delay in making a decision on the bill has sparked a debate across the country, with activists calling for the protection of LGBTQ+ rights and conservative groups pushing for its swift implementation.

It remains to be seen when President Akufo-Addo will make a final decision on the anti-gay bill, but one thing is certain – the debate surrounding LGBTQ+ rights in Ghana is far from over.
