The Speaker of Parliament, Right Honourable Alban Kingsford Bagbin, has recounted how instrumental he was several years ago in the country's fight against the deadly HIV/AIDS disease.
According to him, he was one of the key individuals who led the establishment of the 'Virginity Club' to promote virginity as a value among the youth.
Addressing officials from the Key Accountability Institutions Network in Parliament on Monday, June 9, 2025, the Speaker said he was able to organise, with the support of the Ghana AIDS Commission, a national-level beauty contest for virgins.
The Right Honourable Speaker, however, was quick to issue a disclaimer regarding the selection of contestants. "The national level of the contest was organised at Paloma, and the young virgins were selected not by me, but by different panels of judges.
