‘He is mad’ — Ursula Owusu angrily reacts after accused of being a Lesbian (WATCH)
Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, a representative for Ablekuma West, and Ibrahim Murtala Mohammed, a representative for Tamale Central, got into an argument on the House floor over offensive remarks made against the Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill (LGBT+).
On Wednesday, July 5, 2023, during the second reading of the bill in Parliament, the House overwhelmingly endorsed the report on the measure supported by Andy Appiah-Kubi, the MP for Asante Akim North. Second Deputy Speaker Andrew Asiamah allowed opportunity for members to offer input on the measure.
Ursula, who also serves as the Communications Minister, seemed to deviate from the broad condemnation of the act in her contribution to the LGBTQI law.
She responded to NDC MP Murtala, who had allegedly been heard whispering in the background that she practiced same-sex relationships.
Although Murtala didn’t speak into the microphone, Ursula claimed to have heard Murtala make an official remark.
She allegedly responded by calling Murtala insane.
After some time, Ursula pressed the Tamale Central MP for an apology.
Murtala, however, said that since he did not speak into the microphone, it was inappropriate to order him to leave.
