Presidential candidate of the Movement for Change, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen, has openly reiterated his opposition to LGBTQ+.
He made this stance clear during his appearance at the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) Evening Engagement in Accra.
The IEA’s Presidential candidate Evening Encounters provide a platform for aspiring presidential candidates to share their vision for the nation and engage with key stakeholders.
During his session, Mr Kyerematen presented his Great Transformational Plan (GTP) for the country and shared his position on the controversial LGBTQ+ bill currently under judicial review.
“I oppose LGBTQ+ rights to the fullest extent possible,” he stated.
“It seems people aren’t hearing me. I’ve made this clear since the beginning of the debate—LGBTQ+ goes against my faith and our social values,” he added.
Mr Kyerematen also called on Chief Justice, Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo to take public policy interests into account in the legal deliberations surrounding the bill.
He also urged President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to sign the bill into law.
