Ghanaian gospel musician MOG has said he is against LGBTQI activities just as the bible condemns the act.
MOG has been in the news recently for refusing to publicly declare his stand on the assenting of the Anti-LGBTQI bill by President Akufo-Addo.
Speaking in an interview on TV3’s New Day, MOG said he was misquoted by the reports.
He explained that his refusal to comment was on the assenting and passing of the bill and not LGBTQI activities.
He reiterated that as a Christian, he believes in what the scripture has said concerning LGBTQI activities and associates with that.
“I am a Christian and stand with the scripture. I am not going to go against my faith and do something that is wrong. I just want to set the record straight that MOG has not failed to stand as a Christian, I believe in God and will not go against my faith,” he stressed on Wednesday, March 13.
However, the award-winning gospel singer noted that he will not pass any comment or involve in discussions on the assenting of the Anti-LGBTQI bill by President Akufo-Addo.
According to him, this has no relation to his Christian faith and urged his fellow Christians not to be perturbed by his decision on this stressing that “he is still focus on what he does.”
“What I would not comment about is the passing of the bill and the bill being taken to court and the President’s refusal to sign the bill and I think Ghanaians should respect my position about this thing and it has nothing to do about my faith.
“My Christian brothers and sisters should not have any shaky faith or anything. We are not going to perturbed by this to stop us from what God has assigned us to do,” he added.
The Anti-LGBTQI bill is currently waiting President Akufo-Addo’s assent to finally be implemented into law.
Meanwhile, a Ghanaian citizen has also filed a suit at the Supreme Court to prevent the President from assenting to the bill.
Richard Dela Sky is of the view that the bill violates Article 33(5) of the Constitution of 1992, as well as the provisions of Articles 12(1) and (2), 15(1), 17(1) and (2), 18(2), and 21(1) (a) (b) (d) and (e) of the Constitution.
