Reverend John Ntim Fordjour, the Member of Parliament for Assin South, has announced that the Human Sexual Rights and Family Values Bill otherwise known as Anti-Gay Bill has been reintroduced to Parliament for consideration.
This bill, which aims to prohibit LGBT activities and criminalize their promotion, advocacy, and funding, did not receive Presidential assent during President Akufo-Addo's tenure after its passage by the 8th Parliament.
In an interview with Channel One News on Thursday, February 27, Ntim Fordjour urged President Mahama to assent to the bill once it is passed by the house.
He stated, "Myself, Sam George, Hon Bedzrah, Hon Alhassan Tampuli, Hon Abdul Kabiru, Hon Ekow Vincent-we have reintroduced it and so it is to support the speedy passage of the bill so that he can assent to it.
