- An anti-LGBTQ bill passed by Ghana's parliament, which could derail international aid for the West African country if it becomes law according to an internal government memo, has not yet reached the desk of President Nana Akufo-Addo.
In his first comments on the bill's passage, he said Ghana will not backslide on its human rights record, and added that the bill had been challenged in the Supreme Court.

Like our MP said , " GHANA IS NOT THE 51st STATE OF USA "
Thats right. Tell them 🎉
But they depend on America aids
True the US would never claim that crappy as country
@@Bluewave369 yh right!! GOOD LUCK trying. Both, in claiming our crappy MOTHERLAND and also shoving your crappy ALPHABETS from your crappy systems into our throats.
Then stay away from meddling in people's affairs. You have no right to be telling people what to do.@@Bluewave369
Hypocrites. Go and ask the same questions to the Arab nations. Nonsense
Yp right qonger they do all the time like most voverage was for qatar and every movie gets banned related homosexuality then also they villify us. Just becoz we hold our values from the start not suddenly that's why u don't think they don't and u should appreciate us but right wing whatboutism is all u got. Doesn't matter if it is qoke govt or far right both times far left islamphobia and far right right Islamophobia happen and moderate liberla so called humanist secular Islamophobia happens do u know why becoz we reject man mad chamgeable idelogies and follow the Almighty's eternal law.
Now that is another thing that i wish that ghanao could implement this bill this without having economical issues. I would love if any muslim country or many help them othervise it lokls unlikely that it will get passed. Reject modernity
💯
That part....we'll wait..........................
@@adnanmir2873If we Stop asking or depends from them, they can’t tell us to do Such kinds of stuff,why God has given us everything, but because of our Greediness and wickedness, we’re not Appreciate it, and destroying it and go and Deming from, them 😭😭💔
Ghana is not a homophobic country. However about 99% of the citizens don't accept Men marrying men and women marrying women.
It's not Africans culture.
Denying gay people their basic human rights to get married or live freely & openly is the literal definition of homophobia. Straight people thinking you get to dictate what is or isn't homophobic is like white people thinking they get to dictate what is or isn't racist.
Ok, then go and ask your elderly relatives about Supi!
Because it was against norms, it was done in secrecy.
@@isaaca6445Nobody said it never existed! Homosexuality has always existed in all societies. The fact of the matter is that it has always been either punished or heavily frowned upon in all Ghanaian tribes
Supi is an ancient word. It's a term that was formed by the millennials @@isaaca6445
We need NO aid , Ghana is RICH in culture and raw materials.. 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
So still poor at the end of the day
Well done Ghana, we are supporting u on this. We are Africans and our values must be protected.🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲
All those degenerate people forcing their depraved lifestyle into other people.
Great way to go Ghana, I hope my country Liberia 🇱🇷 follows suit.
Is their anything functioning still in Liberia ? Viva India
Is Africa homophobic,really? Why don't you guys asking UAE, RUSSIA and CHINA if they are homophobic?
Exactly. Why are they not picking on China, Russia. Germany and the rest of them???
That's what the Western country's are very good doing say no to them they give u name
@@louisea.381 Germany is (in general) not a homophobic place.
Russia is not homophobic :)
Russia is pro family. Man, woman and child
And so what? Ghana is a sovereign state and has a right to make their own choice so long as the people of Ghana are in support of it
That’s the thing all the people in Ghana don’t agree
Did you see any one say no in the parliament?
@@jameltanderson Shameless liar, not even a single pass went against the bill in the parliament. Leave Africa alone!
Individual people are also sovereign right? So they should get to decide for themselves who they love.
God bless ghana...keep the sht in the west
Condem all you want we don't care love my Ghanaian brothers and sisters from Uganda 🇺🇬
Africa is trying to protect its unborn generation. This bill will be the first of many. Safeguard the family; Safeguard the unborn generation ❤❤
AMEN 🙌🏾AMEN 🙌🏾
Safeguard humanity! The evil practice the west is spreading will result in zero humans on the earth! But the plans of the wicked fail, fail, fail!
This is not the time of colonialism. The western countries should take their money. They should remember that all raw materials the feeds your factories comes from Africa
And a lot of foreign brains and technoligy keeps your country functioning.Dont forget that !!! Africa does not make cars. Hospital a colonial thing.Dont act smart
Do people not know Africa is a continent with many nations?
No one would ask “Is Asian racist despite the many stories of brutal homophobia coming from several nations on that continent.
africa is one, we were never consulted during berlin confrence for partitioning of africa
We do ask about gay rights all around the world. Today we're talking about Africa, sparked by Ghan being the latest nation go to back to colonial times with its laws!
@@diepiriye Ghana passing laws that already exist in several Asian nations… the world bank is silent. US media is silent.
Yes nobody have any issues with with you before because you are doing whatever you are doing in private but since now you decide to come public like the Western countries and American and decided to push it on the throat of our children in school the good people of Ghana are doing this to protect the society families...... Ghana will not be the next Sodom and Gomorrah like some countries have unfortunately be comes 😢😢😢
We will pass the law and no government can stop it. We dont condone madness
❤🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🫶
We dont condone perversion and immoral behavior. Disgusting people!
Thank you! We absolutely do not condone foolishness!!!!
That's right.....follow your colonial masters 2 centuries back and then claim YOU are the independent ones. LOL!!!!!!
Mind your business. Leave Ghana alone.
If you love them so much, you can keep them in your country.
I don’t like the media at all ……. What do you mean by “ world condemnation “
Angel Maxine, we love you and are not ashamed as a country to claim you as own but you have said you are ashamed of the country you were born and bred in. Well we love our own and that is why we are protecting what is ours. May the Lord be with you where you are. Ghana is always your home. Whenever you decide to return from your visit in Germany or self imposed exile, Ghana is your father and motherland and nothing would change it. But we as a society would not capitulate and throw away our values and beliefs to make you feel more Ghanaian.
That common Angel Maxine. Who is he, she or shem? A cleaner in Germany? Oh let me guess, a transgender who speaks nothing but mental disturbed talks. I laugh. Forget him, her hiem, meow. What ever "pronoun" she has signed for.
Don't mind her, that dada ba mind.
Ghana values are actually outdated UK values mixed with the dictatorial communalism that is shared among the various cultures in that nation
Thank you
God bless our homeland Ghana 🇬🇭
Ebeny, it will not be used for the intended purpose it will be used against large swathes of the pop as a bullying tactic. we'll be laughing around this time in 5 years
This people keeps playing with us 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ with time USA will lose 60 percent of their investment in Africa
Who cares look today the Western country and America have become a rotten society 🤮🤮🤮
Pls respect our Cultures and Traditions. No to Abominable Acts!
Your colonial masters gave YOU your very first laws criminalising LGBTQ folks. Are you seriously THAT ignorant of your own past?
You all are correct in your beliefs! Don’t allow the West to bully you
Just to correct you. Hon. Sam George is not the opposition leader. He is the member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram. Your caption was inaccurate.
Very inaccurate.....and WION prides it self with credibility....smh
Those against, say no...even the cricket was silent
Those against the passing of the bill.
Why don't they and tell the Arab countries?
Because there is no milage to be made
West Africa has a strong Christian heritage praise God.
William Wade Harris being a great light unto many there in 1920's,a black man who literally turned while areas upside down with the gospel
The Arab hav money and lslam and Muslims are against that evil
They are scared. They will not return the same.
They want to continue making african useless so they can have all the resources for themselves😢😢😢😢
Africa is TRYING to stand firm on its desire to maintain its stance on morality and what is acceptable in their societies.
And religion
No to cultural imperialism. Africa must fight for his survive. Our BLACK culture our futur.🇨🇬🇭🇹👍🏿✊🏾✊🏾. LGbq can be taken all to USA/Europe to be saved if they really love them
😂😂😂
no they HATE them!!! There is only the 3 % that is following this satanist's perverted agenda and even those 3% are programmed to be unhappy with themselves which is very common in western world, so unhappy and selfhating and then they get told they can be someone else...3% only of western world is following this dirty subject and 3% is nothing, looks like 3% is just the group of people who did this or want to do this and the governments of those countries plus their families. In western world there is a huge mind programming going on and if people there don't stop to accept this and any massive brainwash then very soon noone will say in public that humans have 2 different genders, male and female. In Europe in some countries someone who says or writes in public that humans have no more than 2 different genders will go to prison. Full dictation there. Only 3% agree with that but 99% of the rest are too scared to say something against it.
🤣🤣🤣
To be fair, it ought to have been asked if the :Arab world is "Homo phobic" too!
They should just have an island for them 😂
Faaaaacts
No such parades have been staged in Ghana yet. When the motion was put in parliament, did you notice the attitude of the parliamentarians? It speaks volumes. We would not be coerced, cajoled or enticed to accept what is alien and unprofitable to life itself as a right because Kamara Harris says so.
Can we shed more light on Poverty and food security, Climate change effects and clean energy...No?
U.S. should concern itself with other pressing issues of this world and stop disturbing the world about imposing sanctions on countries who choose to obey the basic instructions of God on being straight.
True
Who introduced us to Christianity? Did you know Africans from the time before colonisation included openly gay people?
There's corruption and rising inflation but you care about two people who love themselves because you've been brainwashed to think that it is wrong.
Sad
Nothing is worth family values family values are priceless this time that we let go of the West purse strings of manipulation.
As a missions Pastor in South Africa, with exposure to 16 other countries in Africa since 1981, I would encourage Africa to be true to itself, to African culture and to African values!
This are the questions the Western world would ask a country that is rich in all aspects yet the greediness of its leaders have lead the country into massive Dept. I don't blame them at all.
So is that the price of Ghana’s sovereignty? It’s less than what Saudi Arabia makes in a week 😢
Please don't mention any African country and Saudi Arabia in the same sentence regarding money 😂😂😂😂
Is Qater homophobic '.?
We don't accept anything that is going to destroy our social fibric in the name of human rights, is not any human rights that is sensible. We value our moral values not anyone one can impose their animalistic life style on us.
My president sign it don't let those empty threat
we have a lot of minerals we can trade with bricks countries
I hope Ghana's President does sign this legislation
Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait have laws concerning the alphabet community that threatens death.That's pretty extreme. The world isn't condemning them. Why aren't they? Why isn't West proposing onerous sanctions on Saudi Arabia and threatening all kinds of retaliatory action? Why is the collective West so concerned about Africa, an emerging economy? Ghana is not proposing death or segregation of the community. It seems pretty focused on children and family. The world is not condemning Ghana. Maybe the US and the collective West are "disappointed" but the rest of world is minding its own business, including China.
SIGN IT BLACK STARS. Anyone that dont like it, please take those FEW people on into your country. Then everyone will be happy.
What happened to their rights
I think this Bill needs a second look
As a Ghanaian now living in the diaspora. I can tell you for a fact that Angel ain’t no LGBTQ person😂. I hit that several times back in high school in Ghana. Girl just finessed lgbtq to flee our horrible economic situation back home.
I love Ghana for this❤️ There needs to be some regions of this world for people to go, who don’t accept this way of life . We can live without this perversion!
Go Ghana!!!! From USA
😂😂😂 I love Ghana for this, Ghana value, Ghana right
The world is NOT condemning them
Angel Maxine, we are not ashamed to have you as a Ghanaian, but we ashamed of the fact that, you didn't really hold the cultural values you were nutured with but have cling to the values of others. The purpose of the bill is to preserve our beautiful culture and prevent others from imposing their values on us.
Hwe3 ne kwasiaa
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the way u.. said it,,, funny s me
Sa )bayiwa wei gyemie saa. 😂😂😂
Go ask China , Russia, Saudi Arabia that question.
Well done Ghana wish other countries can follow 👏🏿
So why is the west so concern about what we do in our country
To destroy us like they did to those African slaves carried in their boats and ships some years ago. And still at it with racism, discrimination, bully and threats. Oppressing other countries. This is evil. Leave countries alone.
Because it's the right thing to do. Everyone deserves to be free and happy.
@@Klara-tj9kq You're not serious. You call that freedom? Don't come to our country with your foolishness. Period.
@@gloryglory6682 it is freedom. How they choose to live their lives doesn't affect you and other straight people.
@@Klara-tj9kqmy dear. I'm baffled as well.
The economy is in distress but people loving each other and minding their business is a problem.
Give our oppressed history, it's sad that a great deal of Africans are doing the same to people from the lgbtq communities and I am typing this while being straight.
I Think that is a Goodthing you refused You fear God Be Bless. We stand witb you..🎉🎉😊😊
God bless Ghana and all the sponsors of this bill.
This nonsense called LGBTQ as long as Africa is concerned will only stand in South Africa .From my country Nigeria to Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Rwanda, Tunisia, Morocco, etc. If we ever set our eyes on anyone practicing this shameful act, your name will become sorry. If you are reading this comment and you are one of those LGBTQ in Ghana or else where in west Africa, better move to South Africa.
I just don't get homophobes. What gives you the right to boss people around and tell them how to live? Are homophobes really this miserable?
The sad part about it is that there are a lot of people in Ghana, Nigeria, etc that are ways and lesbianism but are afraid to come out because they know it's unpopular however I saw a documentary where a lot of pastors, government officials are undercover gays. The usa is just mire bold. Sad
Yeah. The point is that they keep it under wraps.
@@rosetta4880Tell the US to give them free visa to go there..am still waiting for US response 😂😂😂😂
I think South Africa is supporting that culture because of their high "caucasian" population. Most West African countries with their major native African population do not value the LGBTQ culture.
Talk about the Benefits GHANA will gain from passing.
None
I don’t blame anyone but the president for listening to those Western World
The fact that USA won’t mind their business and leave other countries alone that why they are falling
Don’t tell another country how to run their affairs and less you want someone telling you how to run your country.
Respect Ghanaians
One day this channel will find something positive to report about Africans. South Africa watch those matching.
Love You Ghana... Love you Jamaica...❤❤❤
Ghana 🇬🇭 first 😊
Ghana has 54 sovereign states.
Great bill. That's what the majority of Ghanaians want.
The West is falling apart but we think we can tell everyone else what to do
When is the world going to March against 1 dollar to 13ghs
It's not controversial It's humane
“If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you” - John 15:18
But you hate gay people
:["This is a reason why Afrika must return to Afrikan Origins of Spirituality; it should and rid itself of Western modified concepts of Monotheism.; hence a belief in one All Powerful Creator Being."]
That would mean stopping itself of Christianity. I wonder what would happen to all those churches and pastors taking everyone’s money
They should trust God and let international pressure go to he'll.
It's really damn hypocritical to condemn a country's decision over human rights when the rest if the world is allowing a literal genocide to happen *Again*
What prevents lgbtq people from practising their beliefs privately? Yes Ghana has been having gays and lesbians way back but none had been harmed cos they didn't try to shove their beliefs down the throat of others - and they were largely accepted by their respective families. However, If u try push your lgbtq agenda down people's throat, then there'll be no option than for them to retaliate harshly.
Imagine this turns to you what would you do?😂
@@Occ881 we'll live happily without pushing anyone to forcefully accept our way of life.
Just remain with them at their countries, and live your+++ life, note in Africa
Stand ur ground Ghana. I’m with you! Not all Americans are godless
US can't forced their ideology on Africa. We have our culture and tradition.
Congratulation to Ghana
Amnesty International should be concerned with Palestine
A bill could derail aid for the ENTIRE population? Doesn't it say more about the 'aid' givers?
It does. But Ghana is rich in resources. Ghana doesn't need our United States money or aid. Just use the natural resources. Because the United States congress will definitely vote to stop all aid to Ghana. Just saying as a citizen.
@@quanettaanderson3079 thank you. They can vote whatever they like but Ghana is not a colony and should never be blackmailed into a position they don't genuinely support. I'd like to see the US try that with Saudi.
Africa want to live a normal, we don't hate just the practice is wrong, we are rising from the ashes like the Phoenix.
Which "world" has condemned the bill? I haven't heard condemnation from Saudi, Nigeria, China, Russia, Cuba, India & a host of other countries. In fact the few imperialist meddlers who are making noise are such a small percentage of all the countries in the world that we cannot consider them as "the world".
Good for Ghana❤
Sam George is not opposition leader please. He is a member of parliament representing the people of Ningo Prampram
The question of “ is Africa Homophobic “ is a stupid one. There are 54 countries in Africa. You can’t take what happens in a couple countries and say I represents a continent.
Secondly , no one is persecuting Gays. What many nations are doing is rejecting Western influence and cultural norms. It’s happening in the Middle East , Russia , Africa , the Caribbean and parts of Asia. Ghana is not the 51st state of America. They gave the right to guide their culture the way they see fit.
Good for Ghana
Well I think Angel Maxin was looking to japa (as they say in Nigeria) to avoid the hardship in Ghana now(else we will not as a country be confused over a 'meager' 3.8 bil USD). Angel is running away because the very man we put in charge to run our economy did a shoddy job and now there is hardship. Else if she stayed, she would have known there are people like her or shd I say him😢 who are still leaving free in Ghana despite the hardship. We love people like her but it's the culture and sovereignty that we as a 'people' want that must stand. Not just the interest of Angel Maxin and a few others. When Ghana says NO it shd be a NO because majority says so. Of course the concerns of minority is taken into account but we can't let it overshadow the Majority. That's why Akuffo Addo is President today for which he has decided to use the name of God to build a church in Ghana's name for his God. I am told the voice of the people is the voice of God. The president has kept the peace the best way he can till now, The bill doesn't stop u from being Ghanaian. It shows you how Ghanaians believe their homes shouldnt be. I encourage the church to continually speak abt it and most of all the main Ghanaian people for whom their bill was couched; Families. Do not let yourselves go. When u sit in the kitchens, in some cases huts, living rooms, dining areas while cooking or eating or while watching a movie to whisper it deep into the ears of your children and friends and families that it's not a practice that you believe in because of obvious reasons primary of which is 'unnatural' but treat others with it as a condition which is not permanent but that you will continually pray for them without condemnation.
The west shouldn't try to overturn African culture....
World condemnation or western devils condemnation.the west is not the entire world.
Very good+
They should just have an island for them and name it Gay Island 😏
I agree hehehh
We don't care if you re scared it's for your own good if u leave Ghana
As a Kenyan in Africa, we are tired of the cultural imperialism of the West. We as a people have more important things to deal with like healthcare for our citizens amongst many other issues. It’s about time western media gets the memo and leave Africans alone. We have our own values and systems, is it a must we endorse everything from the West including gender ideology. Leave us alone!! Call us homophobes, will that change anything? Will we stop being Africans? Stop pushing Western Agendas on us!!
It’s cool you will soon belong to China
If this bill is not passed into law, those people will be sorry. Ghanaian citizens will go after them, and nobody can defend them. If the bill is passed into law, those people can report to the police of any assault
U dnt even knw wat the bill entails...anyone who attacks a lgbtq person goes to jail for up to 15yrs, even more than the lgbtq person if caught
@@tfuta6613 did you read to understand my comment?
Like can we focus our energy and resources on things that threaten our very existence........not funfairs
No,they have values.
😂😂
African Arab, Sahel, Magreb, Berber gays homosexual people can come to Poland, Słovakia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Romania, Bułgaria, Croatia will receive protection, shelter in the Intermarium countries, we invite you in these countries, homosexuality is legal, there is protection against harm and hatred.
U can hve them😂😂😂
No, we just don't like foolishness.
Why Phobic? no one is afraid only disgusted.
Oh y’all afraid to admit that no matter what law you pass they will never disappear and how they were in Africa before Christianity
You do realize Africans never condoned or accepted this behavior well before Western contact and Christianity and such individuals were put to death for these activities. Stop telling yourself lies and made up History.@@kevn4life
Dont give that word "homophobic " any power. I don't even entertain the European word.
But you entertain christianity
Ghana is not a demonic country so we won't sell our soul to Satan
sam george is just terrible ... he should be held responsible for everyone who will die because of this stupidity of a bill
