Gospel Singer MOG Pleads The Fifth On The Anti-LGBTQ+ Bill To Protect His Image And Brand

Ghanaian gospel artiste, Nana Yaw Boakye, widely known as MOG music has found himself at the center of controversy as he carefully navigates the sensitive terrain of the Anti-LGBTQ+ Bill in Ghana.

 Choosing to plead the fifth on this contentious issue, the renowned musician has adopted a stance of silence to safeguard his image and brand in the eyes of his diverse fan base.

He stated that due to his profession as a gospel artiste, whom people look up to in society and regard highly, he would not publicly disclose his stance on the anti-LGBT+ Bill.

The ‘Mala hitmaker, during an appearance on UTV’s United Showbiz programe on Saturday, March 9, 2024, argued that if he publicly reveals his position on the Bill, whether in favour or not, some members of the public might subject him to criticism, something he wishes to avoid.

MOG noted that he can make his opinion on the Bill known privately but not in the media.

“With this issue [anti-LGBT+ Bill], I will plead the fifth because of my work as a gospel musician

I can speak about my stance on the issue privately but not on air,” he said.
