The Kwabenya Traditional Council in the GA East Municipality of
the Greater Accra Region has threatened to burn down a house where it is
alleged that the Lesbians, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender LGBT, had a meeting
last Wednesday inside Ashongman, a community within the Kwabenya District and
under the traditional Council.
The Public Relations Officer of
the traditional Council who is also the Kwabenya Musuku Manhene, Nii Mensah Dza
Nyomo 1 said a house in the area has been hosting LGBTQ meetings which the
council will not accept.
The above all came to light in a
press conference addressed by the Traditional Council in Accra.
The Chiefs said an investigation
has been launched into the matter to find out the exact house and the owner of
the premises, warning the house could be set ablaze.
“We won’t sit down for kwabenya
to gain a bad name that the LGBT meeting grounds or office is located in
kwabenya Ashongman. No way”, he warned.
This was said during a press conference organized by the kwabenya traditional council.

This comes after the Executive
Secretary of the National Coalition for Proper Human Sexual Rights and Family
Values, Moses Foh-Amoaning called on the government to close down the newly
opened LGBT office in Tesano.
According to him, his coalition is made up of the Christian
Council and the Catholic Bishops Conference, the Muslim community as well as
the traditional rulers, making it a tripartite coalition fighting this LGBT
agenda in Ghana which could turn its heat on Akufo-Addo should he fail to heed.
Giving the background of the LGBTQ movement, Lawyer
Foh-Amoaning said that its formation started in New York City and extended to
California and has since spread throughout the world now coming to Ghana.
