Ghana president delays decision on anti-gay bill

Ghana’s president, Nana Akufo-Addo, has decided to delay making a decision on a controversial anti-gay bill that was recently approved by the country’s parliament.

The bill, which criminalizes LGBTQ+ activities and advocacy, has sparked widespread condemnation from human rights organizations and the international community. However, supporters of the bill argue that it is necessary to protect Ghanaian values and morals.

President Akufo-Addo, who has faced pressure from both sides of the issue, has stated that he needs more time to consider the implications of the bill before making a decision.

The delay in the president’s decision has only intensified the debate surrounding the bill, with LGBTQ+ activists calling for its rejection and supporters urging swift implementation.

It remains to be seen what decision President Akufo-Addo will ultimately make regarding the anti-gay bill in Ghana.
