A group calling itself Journalists against LGBTQI has said the ball is currently in President Akufo-Addo’s court to once and for all state his stance on homosexuality in Ghana.

Explaining further, he said Section 104 of Ghana’s Criminal Code prohibits one from having unnatural carnal knowledge with another person hence, Ghana should not entertain the legalization of LGBTQI.
Section 104(1)(b) of the Criminal Offences Act states that: “A person who has unnatural carnal knowledge of another person of not less than sixteen years of age with the consent of that other person commits a misdemeanor”.
