Anti-LGBTQ+ bill amendment to be completed on Friday – Majority Leader.

The Majority Leader in Parliament, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, is hopeful that the clause-by-clause amendment process of the anti-LGBTQ+ bill will be completed by the end of Friday, February 9.

The House is set to resume consideration of the bill today after a recess on Tuesday, February 6.
The anti-gay bill, officially titled the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill, has stirred significant controversy both within the country and on the international front.
The proposed law aims to criminalise same-sex sexual relationships, including oral and anal sex, with penalties ranging from five to 10 years in prison.
