Bawumia to sign anti gay bill as President

The Vice President and Presidential Candidate of the NPP, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has declared his readiness to sign the controversial anti gay bill into law as President of the country.

The bill, which was unanimously passed by Parliament, is currently waiting for Presidential assent, but the process has been stalled following a legal challenge over its constitutionality at the Supreme Court.

Nonetheless, Dr. Bawumia has stated unequivocally that he will sign the bill into law as President.

Addressing thousands of worshippers in Kumasi at the Philadelphia Church on Sunday, Bawumia minced no words about his readiness to put the controversial issue to bed.

"There are so many issues which are dear to so many people and our father," Dr. Bawumia said.

"There are two issues in parliament which are of importance to many Ghanaians . One is the LGBTQ+ Bill which is so dear to our father and Ghanaians. By the grace of God when I come I will sign it immediately."

"Another issue which is so serious to our father and Ghanaians is the anti witchcraft bill, which I will sign as well."

Throughout his campaign, Dr. Bawumia has been stating his strong opposition to the practice of LGBTQ+ in Ghana, insisting that it is against the cultural and religious norms of Ghana.
