Executive Secretary of the National Coalition for Proper Human Sexual Rights and Family Values, Moses Foh-Amoaning has hit back at the Executive Director for the Danquah Institute, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, over some comments he made about the anti-LGBTQI+ Bill and its implications on Ghana in the international community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following a proposed Bill to criminalise LGBTQI+ activities in the country, Mr Asare Otchere-Darko opined that the Bill predisposes Ghana to being blacklisted for promoting hate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But in a reaction on Joy FM\u2019s Super Morning Show, Monday, Dr Foh-Amoaning challenged the claim, insisting that no part of the Bill promotes hate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve heard Gabby say that those of us who are promoting the Bill are exposing Ghana to be blacklisted for hate but if you read the law, you\u2019ll notice that this is no way about hate,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the anti-LGBTQI Bill, on the other hand, is aimed at strengthening the legal framework such that it can address all the manifestations of what he described as, an LGBTQI agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe facts and the statistics show that, we need to galvanise, structure the law and ensure that the right things are done. This is not something that we have to leave, if we leave, we will be blown over,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He further cautioned Mr Asare Otchere-Darko, a staunch member of the NPP, to be mindful of his words since the promoters of the Bill include senior clergy men such as the President of the Catholic Bishops Conference, the current President of the Christian Council of Ghana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are protecting everyone\u2019s rights, including the rights of those LGBTQI activists. It is a bill that promotes proper human sexual rights and Ghanaian values. Those who accept that it is a medical condition, will not be sent to jail. Those that we are after are those who say it\u2019s a lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t hate. He should be very careful over the language that he uses. We can\u2019t allow a degenerate moral behavior, packaged and superimposed on us, as a way of behaviour. That can\u2019t be right. For my good friend Gabby, I\u2019m sorry he should not make himself an object of colonialism,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
