Ghana will have no choice than legalise homosexuality in the country in some years to come, veteran highlife musician, Rex Omar, has said.
According to him, there are people who were born with hormonal imbalances resulting in their homosexual orientation, therefore, they cannot be blamed for their condition.
Rex Omar further noted that the rights of homosexuals cannot be violated because they are humans who need to be respected.
Speaking on Entertainment Capital on Accra100.5FM hosted by Bismarck Boachie (DJ Premier) on Saturday, 2 June, the “Da Da Di Da” hit singer said: “My take on homosexuality is this: People are homosexual by choice, they have decided to be homosexuals and that is their cup of tea. There are others who are also homosexual by nature, it is in their genes.
“I am not one of the people who speak against them because even if in the whole wide-world there are two people who are homosexual, they are also human beings and they have rights. So, I am not that person who talks down on them.”
When asked if he will do songs for homosexuals, he said: “Why will they approach me for a song? For what? To promote homosexuality? I haven’t thought of that.
“In Africa, we have cultural sensibilities and not all of us are very broad-minded to understand this issue. The broad-minded people know that the reasons some countries have legalised homosexuality is because there are people, who, by nature, are ‘Kojo Besia’, a description for someone who is a man but has female beahviour. If you deliver a baby of that nature, will you throw it into the dustbin?
“This is a very controversial issue but I believe that as time goes on we will get to a point where we will understand some of these things.”
When asked whether he thinks in the near-future, despite Ghanaians’ aversion to homosexuality, in years to come, Ghana will legalise homosexuality, he said: “We will have no choice. Unlike prostitution, there is no one born to be a prostitute, it is a job of choice but this hormonal imbalances like hermaphrodite, you can’t throw them away, so, why do we have to infringe on their rights?”

I wont be surprisd bcos with gays like you and Anas anything is possible in this country. that ***barred word*** has come out again with another distorted video to put ple's husbands and fathers into trouble while he walks about freely doing the same thing. someone who claims to be doing something good for his country why must he cover his face when in public. he shd be proud to show his face so ple can hail him but bcos he is a cr1m1nal and just trying to survive at others downfall he is covering his face and the ***barred word*** ones are hailing him. he is a smart cr1m1nal. someone shd tell this man that it will not happen in this country bcos we will beat any law maker that will be involved in that including the president
NOT the Ghana I know!
have you guys asked yourselves why they are not pushing this on Nigeria? because Nigeria will not tolerate the western ***barred word***
if you guys knew the challenges facing the western word when it comes to this syndrome, you will keep quiet.
you are a ***barred word***.....they have finally bought you ryt?
Mr Rex,of all the problems engulfing this beautiful country,its only this ***barred word*** homo thing you can talk about?what about the filth and lawlessness and poor roads, unroadworthy cars, vans and trucks and streetlights that are non existing. Please advocate some thing that can make our country a better place.
Plain and simple, Rex has been engaged by the lobby group to do pretty for them, these guys have the financial muscle to push their agenda so they will pay who ever will sell their conscience to them. mind you that Rex has been in some financial difficulties over the past 2 or so years. sorry man, I can assure you that you are on a slippery turf so do well to return their money.
Rex Omar, I heard one of your song which says, “the faith you have obtained, hold it firmly and carefully, for Satan is strong.” You did well to let humanity to know that Satan is strong so we should be careful of our doing, that is fantastic. So why this u turn. Are you an activist of Satan now? No wonder that you are part of occultism, who doesn’t care nor mind what is of Satan. There’s no way God shall see to His beloved nation Ghana which is His second born to legalize this act of Satan. He is yet to unveil He greatest blessings upon us instead.
Rex please look for better things that will make you relevant in these times. The ones you call broadminded are actually shallow minded, do not belittle the God given intelligence of Africans. Our problem is that we have failed to take our destiny into our hands but I can bet you that we are just as smart as other people of other continents. Who tells you God created some people to be gay, please come again, gayism is all by choice even the Kojo Besias we know of old and now in our society see girls as partners and not boys or men. Don't try to be in the middle to court attention, indicate your stance because what is harmful to society cannot be entertained.Everybody has right and we are not saying someones right should be taken by know that your right is in a context of what the general society agrees. Gay will extinct society, it is medical risky because you are prone to diseases and it is naturally wrong because even dogs know better.
