The Osu Traditional Council has called on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo to expedite work on the approval of the Human Sexual Rights and Family Values bill also known as the anti-LGBTQ bill to avert the wrath of God on Ghana.
This call comes after proponents of the bill announced plans to protest against the Chief Justice on August 21, 2024, accusing her of stalling the transmission of the bill to the President for his assent.
During a courtesy call by the proponents of the bill, led by Ningo-Prampram MP Samuel Nartey George, the Acting President of the Osu Traditional Council, Nuumo Gbelenfo III, cautioned against delays in the bill’s approval.

“If it were the norm that marriage was set between people of the same sex, we would have seen our president marry a man. But that is not the case. So I am appealing to the president to ensure that the right thing is done by signing the bill into law in order for Ghana not to incur the wrath of God,” Nuumo Gbelenfo III stated.
“It is a filthy practice, so we are urging the president and the Chief Justice to do the needful to avert the anger of God,” he added.
