Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, a prominent member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and former Executive Director of the Danquah Institute (DI), has warned that the passage of the anti-LGBTQ+ Bill will come with consequences.
Parliament on February 28, 2024, passed the bill that outlaws LGBTQ+ activities, including their promotion, advocacy, and funding.
Individuals found guilty could be sentenced to imprisonment ranging from 6 months to 3 years, while those who promote and sponsor the act could face a prison term between 3 to 5 years.
In a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), Mr. Otchere-Darko expressed his concerns about the enactment of what he termed a “harsher anti-LGBTQ Bill” and highlighted the possible implications.
