Adwoa Safo saying “The Criminality of LGBT is Non-negotiable” where was the law when an LGBT community was created in Ghana with ē support of ē EU? What has been done about it so far? She is just another politician giving a political talk to win public sympathy pic.twitter.com/rqnUFVjmCP

I’m against adwoa safo’s decision for getting pregnant for ken ,a married man but for the fact she’s been ridiculed for stating the law against LGBT , I support her ,in standing for the truth . In Ghana we are against the LGBT .. Period . Our laws says so!

Got to respect Hon. Adwoa Safo. At least, she didn’t beat about the bush. Most people when asked this question rarely provide an actual answer.

It’s good to have women lead Gender, Children and Social Protection Ministry as the convention has been.

But sometimes I wonder, with people like Adwoa Safo and many others before her, if the goal is sabotage.
The policy people call it adverse incorporation. Cos what’s this
The position of Hon Adwoa Safo Minister Designate for Gender, Children & Social Protection on LGBT was brilliant and impressive at vetting today. We cannot watch LGBT glorified in a country whose cultural, religious & legal orientation without ambiguity, abhor LGBT #SayNotoLGBT pic.twitter.com/4El5H5KQOA

As for the gloves they are using on Adwoa Safo at the vetting, they won’t even fit a baby.
