LGBTQI: Homosexuality is NOT human right; We SHALL pass the Bill against it – Sam George
Sam George, who felt very proud of the work done by the 8-member committee made up of Members of Parliament with whom the Draft Bill for the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values was worked on said, at a time when some may choose convenience and the alluring offers been made, these men and women have given true essence to the title the offices they hold bear. They have stood up for what is right, just and noble.
He believes that, “You have every right to disagree with our Bill. We can live and tolerate your disagreement. However, let your disagreement be based in law, fact and science. Not your emotions or thoughts. We are open for anyone who has a memorandum on the Bill to submit same to the Parliamentary Committee when it calls for same. We are ready to debate the issues with anyone or group so long as it is based in law. We are Legislators.”

Mr. Sam George added that, “To those asking the essence of having a Bill, what is the value of plenty talk and promises if you are not interested in giving life to your words. Or are they empty words that do not portray the intents of your hearts. Let’s put our money where our mouth is.”
“I am so proud of my Colleagues and the overwhelming majority of Ghanaians who have stood with us so far. We shall succeed. We shall be victorious.” He said.
