We won’t tolerate further delays in approving anti-gay bill – Minority

The Minority Caucus in Parliament has warned that it will not tolerate any further attempts to delay the approval of the bill on the promotion of proper human sexual rights and Ghanaian family values, commonly known as the anti-gay bill.

Last week, ahead of the third reading and potential passage of the bill, Deputy Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin filed a motion demanding a second consideration of the bill. His proposed amendment aimed to replace imprisonment with community service.

The House was therefore compelled to continue with the amendment of about thirteen of the clauses in the bill today Wednesday, February 21.

Minority Chief Whip Governs Agbodza urged Afenyo-Markin to complete any necessary consultations regarding his proposed amendments before Wednesday. He warned that the Minority will not tolerate any actions perceived as delaying the process beyond that date.
