The Misleading Debate on the LGBTQ+ Bill: Setting the Record Straight

 

The Misleading Debate on the LGBTQ+ Bill: Setting the Record Straight

As the debate surrounding the LGBTQ+ Bill continues to unfold, it's essential to separate fact from fiction. The recent statement by H.E. John Dramani Mahama has sparked intense discussion, but the focus has been misdirected.

Rather than debating the merits of H.E. Mahama's statement on government sponsorship, we should be examining the bill's status: has it expired in accordance with the law, or is it still in force? This is the crux of the matter, and it's crucial that we steer the conversation back on track.

H.E. Mahama's statement should be seen as a testament to his commitment to passing the bill. By prioritizing its passage, he demonstrates his dedication to promoting equality and human rights. As a nation, we should be applauding this effort, rather than getting bogged down in misinformed debates.

As a member of the NDC Communication Team and Leader of the Presidential Watchtower GH, I urge the media to guide the discussion in a constructive and informed manner. Let's work together to create a more nuanced and accurate understanding of the LGBTQ+ Bill and its implications for our society.

Parts of the aluminum roofing sheets are rusting away, while their remains hang loosely on the tiny erected concrete pillars. Class sessions end abruptly whenever the clouds gather.  “Our roof is ripping off. And when it rains, it leaks into our classroom, so we have to end classes.  “When it leaks, our books get wet and we are not able...

  NPP 2024 Elections Defeat: Assin Central Presented A Weak Parliamentary Candidate ...Constituents Reveals. The New Patriotic Party's (NPP) staggering defeat in the 2024 general election has prompted a nationwide introspection, as the party seeks to understand the underlying causes of its loss. One of the most shocking losses was the Assin Central seat, which had been a stronghold for the NPP since 2000 under the leadership of Kennedy Agyapong.
