Pastors, Imams, others will soon hit the streets if government does not close down LGBTQ offices in the country.
LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer) community has opened an office at Tesano, a suburb in Accra. According to reports, these offices are to promote their rights in Ghana.
This has sparked public outrage with a massive demand for President Akufo-Addo to ensure the offices are closed down especially because it contradicts the country’s laws regarding unnatural carnal knowledge.
Sheikh Aremeyaw Shaibu, the Spokesperson for the National Chief Imam has added his voice to the numerous calls for government to act.
Speaking in a panel discussion on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo', Sheikh Aremeyaw said: "government must act now to close down all the offices; immediately otherwise, bishops, pastors, Imams, Sheikhs will come together to protest against this".
He has also called for a review of the laws “to cover all other elements of the sexual orientations" since it keeps expanding.

Why not enforcing these on the Chinese ,UAE etc .We have our laws which is ok for us .The chinese when they want to be gay they move to the US where it is accepted .These developed country's have nothing to do than to be playing the role of God .They say we discriminate against these people ,Up to date blacks are discriminated in the US and even some areas a black man is not allowed to stay there .How can human accept something that has 70 to 80 % disadvantages and 30 to 20 advantages .For these activity spread disease easily and it is something one can not come out easily . Ghana we wish for all who have this passion to come to normal but we will not accept this into our laws . We edge parents to care for their wards and we ask teachers too to show more care to their students .We edge traditionally leaders to once a while organizes programmes for the youth .Also we call on the church and Muslim unity to intensify their teachings on righteous living . Those in this behavior we pray for mercy that you know the truth ,especially those in churches who are practicing this ,you against Christ .
