Freddie Blay has expressed his strong concerns about the potential global backlash Ghana could face if the controversial LGBTQ+ bill is passed.

During an interview on GHOne TV’s Hard Talk, the former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) shared that international development partners have already made it clear that Ghana’s move to criminalize LGBTQ+ activities could lead to serious consequences, including sanctions and the withdrawal of financial assistance.

He told the host, “Our development partners and co have indicated clearly that they think it is an abuse of human rights, and for that reason, if you go ahead and assent to it, they may apply certain sanctions and withdraw some assistance.”

Blay didn’t shy away from acknowledging the gravity of these concerns, adding, “I take it very seriously.”

The LGBTQ+ bill has become one of the most debated topics in Ghanaian politics, with supporters emphasizing the importance of preserving the country’s cultural and moral values.

On the other hand, critics of the bill argue that it could undermine Ghana’s international relationships and lead to significant diplomatic and economic setbacks.
