Addressing a gathering of pastors and church leaders, the former president spoke passionately about his Christian faith and its alignment with his opposition to same-sex relationships and gender identity changes.
The event, initially centred around prayer and worship, took a more politically charged direction when Mahama broached the topic of same-sex relations, citing the failure of the current administration to take decisive action on the matter.
He specifically criticised President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for not signing the Promotion of Proper Human Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Act into law, despite Parliament's passage of the bill.
Mahama highlighted the significance of the legislation, expressing disappointment in what he described as a "dangerous precedent" set by the president's inaction.
