I won’t support LGBTQ activities; my faith is against it – Bawumia

Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has firmly expressed his opposition to LGBTQ+ activities in Ghana. Dr. Bawumia underscored that the Islamic faith and other religions in Ghana oppose such activities.

As a devout Muslim, he made it clear that he neither supports nor condones LGBTQ practices.
The Vice President’s remarks were prompted by calls from various quarters, particularly within certain Muslim communities in the country, urging him to clarify his position on the LGBT issue.

These statements come at a time when President Akufo-Addo has yet to sign a bill into law regarding this matter.
Addressing the congregation during the Eidul-Fitr prayers at the Kumasi Central Mosque in the Ashanti Region, Dr. Bawumia reiterated his steadfast stance against LGBTQ activities, affirming that such practices would not be tolerated under his leadership.
