A leading member of the ruling New Patriotic Party, Gabby Otchere-Darko has encouraged the National Cathedral Secretariat not to turn down LGBT community donations for the construction of the national structure.
He argued in a new tweet the fact that LGBTQ+ persons are deemed ‘different’ does not make them bad people or their money unwholesome
The astute lawyer and politician further said homosexuals are Christians and hence should be permitted to donate to the construction of the National Cathedral.
He tweeted; Is it the rule or practice that churches in Ghana take no donations, tithes or offerings from homosexuals? Are gays banned from being Christians? No. If they are free to got to church, as it is the case, then surely they are free to donate and if so then what really is the issue?
