  Interesting write-up. The West criminalizes polygamy and polyandry. Aren’t the rights of bigamists also important? This is hypocrisy

  Sam George and his cosponsors are no leaders, they are followers. True leaders represent their people's best cultural values, and they are not afraid to lead their people away from our worst inhumane, colonized, mythical, and stupid so called cultural values. And to the Christians who support this unchristian bill, ask yourselves, in the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, what will Jesus do in this situation? Mind you, he ate with tax-collectors and the so-called "sinners." You say you follow Jesus and yet here you are supporting the government to condemn people who have done nothing to you except disagree with your mythical perspective regarding their own identity.
  
  Ghanaians, it is time to throw away what is harmful - there are many - in our cultural practices, think critically, and uphold the best, productive and humane values also present in our cultures.

  Mr. Ofori, can you give us a break?
  
  Which right is this that you are hungrily defending? Some of you so-called skewed enlightened folks are confused. Open society means promote and enforce your 'right to sleep with another human being of the same sex' on others, using all forms of methods to hoodwink even the young child to the foolish lifestyle. Be assured, you will get full plaudits if you champion your mission in Saudi Arabia. Go there and 'educate' them with the lgbtq+ balderdash.
  
  There is no right at risk in rejecting our culture sees as repugnant and what potentially is impregnated with moral corruption and societal decadence. Go to the USA and ask the state of Florida and you will see how these so-called rights of homosexuals are frowned upon. Just one example from the champion Western nation promoting homosexuality globally. Other states are enacting laws to remove the lgbtq flag from public space. Signs of rejection and rethinking by right-thinking humans.
  
  The president owes it to Ghana, our sovereignty, our children, grandchildren and generations to come, to give his assent to tbe bill. Anything contrary will forever erode any trace of legacy he has chalked in his reign as president of this great nation. He can choose to please the so-called right groups and the West and refuse to sign it into law. He will face the wrath of the nation, if that happens.
