Pass the anti-gay bill – Ashaiman Muslim community

The Ashaiman Muslim Community Anti-LGBTQI campaign group has vehemently rejected homosexual activities in Ghana.

The group said Allah forbids such action hence, should not be entertained. They have thrown their support behind the move to pass the anti-gay bill which is currently before Parliament.

“From the Islamic point homosexuality is a forbidden action, a major sin and anyone who partakes in it is considered a disobedient servant of Allah that will acquire his displeasure and disapproval,” a statement said.

Their statement comes at a time a group of professionals have also rejected the current anti-gay bill.

For instance, a professor of Journalism and Mass Communication, Kwame Karikari, said the current anti-gay bill which is being promoted by Ningo Prampram lawmaker Samuel Nartey George and some of his colleague legislators, is dangerous because it seeks to promote hate for homosexuals in the country.

In the view of Prof Karikari, gays and lesbians are human beings and deserve to be respected and protected as any other person.
