Arab countries don't have thieving, corrupt, nepotic, and profligate leaders. Their leaders fiercely guard the public purse and and are passionate in developing their countries with the available resource. Can you say same fo ...

Ghana has no identity. It is a big shame.
We are so broke, we cannot allow this LGBT bill to further worsen our plight.
LGBT is not Ghana's problem right now and we should not shoot ourselves in the stomach by making it such a big deal.
If it wasn't for Sam Geo ...

Future president, it is a big, big deal to say a big no to these Westerners who want to relate to us as their robots and other machines.

If the whole Finance Minister will make such a statement, then, there is no reason why we are empty minded. If not, why this person become a minister to talk in such a way? In fact we are in trouble.
How can this very person ...

The minister was a gay by then and he's still a secret puffa that's why o
You people are so broke that you are at the mercy of the IMF which is controlled by the US,get that in your thick skul,they control your country and your president
how i wish that bill is on my table right now. Do I need more than 1 minute to sign it?
The Minister is a muslim right then he can act against his religion and chief Imam. He cannot work against his constituents and the cultural value of his tribe. NPP will loose either ways.
Opportunity has presented for this government to actively demonstrate their empty slogan - "Ghana Beyond Aid" These are empty words they authored just to take up pages and confuse the uninitiated.
Wondering if the new Fina ...

NO TRUMU, NO DOLLARS? SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE.
I remember the days of Prof. Atta Mills. He was very plain and emphatic about him stance and echoed it well without any fear of the economy. May his gentle soul rest well.
That will be a coup d'etat in Ghana if the foreign aid stops.
BECAUSE OF MONEY "TRUMUTRUMU" BILL SHOULD NOT BE SIGNED. EII MR FINANCE MINISTER
Our traditional rulers have anti- LGBT +Bill already . If Parliament is introducing this bill to protect the Ghanaian culture, then then the bill should be referred to them to tell us the sort of punishment they have for suc ...

If we reject lgbtq from the western Nations then we should also reject their loans
Foreign aid and IMF loans are what's preventing Ghana from falling into the abyss
Amin Adam or Adam Amin Anta!
This is strange and sad for Ghana. This is strange to hear from the Ministry of Finance. Why do we allow the western countries to dictate to us about our culture and values?. Ghanaians can't allow homosesexuals to tell our ch ...

Is the loans from the western nations also gay?
Why don't you go to Russia or China for a loan?
The same western nations feed us. Without IMF loans and world bank loans, Ghana will cease to exist .
Kwasea. Are loans not to be paid back? NPP is a disgrace
Ass-holes. Go to he'll with that fucken 300million
His is jailing gay people going to fix homosexuality in Ghana?
They will go to jail and become masters at their craft, come back into society and spread it.
Foolish law
What kind of nonsense is that?
So how are Qatar and Saudi Arabia able to flourish with very strict Anti Gay law. Ghanaian leaders are daft. These white people need our resources, can we also ask them to leave and lets see if they will comfortable. Use the ...

Who signed the letter from the Ministry of Finance to the Presidency urging the President to refrain from signing the bill. What was his locus standi? He has acted in contempt of Parliament
I respect lslamic religion but, know what? Hence fourth, I will not respect them again.
The constituents of this minister must be more than angry and tear this mp/ minister apart anytime he goes to his constituency.
A Musli ...

The fact that the minister is a Muslim means he is the voice of all Muslims, remember respect is reciprocal.
It is a shame there is still neo-colonialism in existence among African nations. We cannot decide for ourselves without the white man dictating to us. We cannot even make laws that the white man deems not suitable to their ta ...

I thought the finance minister is a Muslim and we know Muslims stand on LGBTQ. He is choosing politics over his religious beliefs. It is a shame.
Just imagine the actions and behaviour of the ministry that has ruined the economy of the country that has created such chaos and hardships in our nation now asking our President to refrain from signing the Anti- LGBTQ Bill i ...

I wish today is December 7th i can wait to vote this evil government out.
The Minister of Finance must resign. He is a stumbling block to the antiLGBTQ bill which Ghana Parliament has approved.
These same idiots who misused Ghana's finances are now asking the President not to sign the bill. Then they ought to reclaim all the missing monies laid out by the accountant General.
Useless and criminals you guys are thieves and corrupt leaders akufo addo bawumia app government God will punish you guys one by one only Ashanti's and week thinking people understand you idiots people
There are no legal requirements binding countries to accept LGBTQi+ before they can do businesses with the IMF. In fact, no such thing has been on IMF's negotiation table. LGBTQi+ is not part of the aims and objectives of IMF ...
