We did not vote NDC to come and pass a useless LGBTQ paper BILL. We care zero about an ineffective, unnecessary, useless LGBTQ paper bill. Be serious. Deliver for suffering Ghanaians. To hell with LGBTQ.

Shut your mouth up and let the government deal with more important problems facing the nation.
I promise you this LGBTQ+ issue will end up at the Supreme Court for its legality to be scrutinised . Stop spreading hate and discrimination.

Kwasea...don't you receive your salary each month? Put yourself in their shoes and see how you will feel for not being paid over a year. Deal with your own issues in terms of Education Ministry and leave LGBTQ issue to your Azaa and Corrupt Lier Mahama, the idiot who doesn't know what he's doing. Come on, pay teachers their salary and stop gyimii no.

Haruna Iddrisu must not take Ghanaians for fools . The NPP as the majority in parliament did not pass the LGBTQ bill under Akuffo Addo which really frustrated Ghanaians. The NPP is out of power and with the NDC forming a macro majority which can pass this into law but our too nice , gentle president Mahama is telling us that the LGBTQ bill is not a priority for him when most of his ministers and himself criticize Akuffo Addo for not doing it . It looks like Akuffo Addo is more credible and sincere with Ghanaians because he refused to sign it unlike Mahama who promised to sign it but now has his tail coiled behind him . Even his own ministers are against him for that abiding by his promise to Ghanaians. So if Mahama fooled Ghana just to get our votes , it will affect the party in the next elections but he may not care because this is his final term as president.

We've heard you. Parliament failed to exercise it's duty based on the Article you cited. That opportunity is missed. There is a new sheriff in town now, NDC supper majority. What's happening to the LGBTQ+ bill the president promised to sign when voted into power?
When is it coming to parliament as a government bill instead of a private citizen bill? NDC MPs alone with their super majority can pass this without the president's signature.
