The conference that never was!

Mon, 11 Sep 2006 Source: Haruna Atta (ADM)

Was there a gay/lesbians conference slated for Ghana?

Someone who should know, the President of the Gays and Lesbians Association, a man called Peter, has told the ADM that there was no such thing in the offing. So how/where did the story originate to have so gripped the nation as to invite a public statement from the government and condemnation from religious, social and traditional groups?

The culprit, it seems, is all of us: the media.

Isn’t this something worth investigating by the National Media Commission? How could false media reports have created such an panic situation in Ghana at home and in the Ghanaian Diaspora?

But true or false media reporting, one thing has been settled unequivocally in this sexual affair: it is now quite clear that Ghanaians do not have the stomach for gays and lesbians!
