By Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has asserted firmly that if elected president, he will not condone LGBTQ activities in the country, irrespective of the potential consequences. He emphasized that such activities are inconsistent with the nation’s values and therefore cannot be endorsed.
Dr. Bawumia highlighted that neither the Bible nor the Quran, nor the Ghanaian public, endorse such practices.
During a meeting with the clergy in Tamale on Thursday, the Vice President stated, “On this matter of LGBTQ, I want to say again without any equivocation that we will not allow it in Ghana. It is not going to be allowed. Our Bible says no, our Quran says no, and our people say no. So no. That is the answer.”
“No man will be marrying a man, no woman will be marrying a woman. It is not our value. And I will stand firm no matter the consequences.
“We will stand firm on that matter no matter the consequences. We will safeguard our country and we will safeguard our people.”
