Ignatius Annor ,a former Journalist with Metro TV in Ghana but now practicing abroad says he is still a fabulous Gay.
The Journalist stirred controversy in Ghana two years ago when he openly declared on a national television he was a gay, and went on to advocate for homosexual right in Ghana.
Subsequently, the family of Ignatius Annor were reportedly disturbed by his statement.
His mother took to fasting and prayers for God’s intervention to deliver her son in what she believes is evil possession.
In a Facebook post Wednesday February 23,2023 , Ignatius Annor said “two years ago today, I came out via a television program in Ghana. As I reflect on my second year anniversary, I’m thankful for one of the greatest gifts I gave myself — the power behind authenticity and truth. And let me be clear, I am still fabulously gay”.
Last year, Ghana’s parliament introduced a controversial new anti-LGBTQ bill that could further criminalise same-sex acts and identities.
Various religious groups including Christians,Muslims and traditional rulers have since intensified pressure on parliament to pass the bull into law.
If passed, the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Family Values Bill would introduce jail terms of up to 5 years for same-sex intercourse, up to 10 years for anyone “promoting” LGBTQ activities, and up to 1 year for a same-sex “public show of amorous relations”.
Among other things, the law would also forcibly disband all LGBTQ organisations, ban trans healthcare, and prohibit adoption by same-sex couples.
