The Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) has begun investigations into the growing rate of homosexuality in the Western and Central regions, Western Regional Minister, Mr. Paul Evans Aidoo has revealed.
According to the minister, there is the need for a thorough investigation into what he terms a “social canker” which has contributed to the growing rate of HIV/AIDS in the country.
About eight thousand homosexuals were registered by non-governmental organization (NGOs) at a day’s workshop in the Western and some parts of the Central regions after they (homosexuals) underwent voluntary counseling and testing with majority of them infected with sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV/AIDS.
The workshop, which was funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), aimed at training health workers to be abreast with the basic facts about HIV and AIDS also revealed that, the homosexuals included students in junior and senior high schools, polytechnics and workers.
The growing rate of homosexuals in the country has resulted in the tripling of sexually transmitted diseases especially HIV and AIDS.
Mr Paul Evans Aidoo revealed on Adom FM on Wednesday that, even though homosexuality is illegal, it is still widely practiced secretly which makes it very difficult to arrest the culprits.
He said it is very important for the homosexuals to be identified, especially those infected with STDs to control the spread.
The Western Regional Minister added that the BNI is working closely with the police, Ghana Health Service and the NGO to find a lasting solution to the problem.
Mr. Aidoo stressed the need for more education on the dangers of homosexuality in the country.
But a constitutional lawyer, Yaw Anokye Frimpong argued that the BNI or the police have no right to arrest homosexuals in the country.
He said even though some religion frown upon homosexuality, it is not explicitly stated in the criminal code that it is a crime.
Lawyer Anokye Frimpong argued that homosexuality is a sexual preference which no one must be discriminated upon if he or she decides to indulge in.

Instead of BNI investigating the corrupted & “sikadifo)” leaders who are causing financial loss to the state, look at what they are wasting their time on.
this homosexual thing has been there since time immemorial, they cant change a thing about it.
i believe the best thing they need to do is to educate ppl on how to prevent STDs
@B.B, talk of misplaced priorities.If they were going to arrest tourists who come to take advantage of our boys and girls,that wud have been better.I believe that is what is goin on n the western region.It is hypocrisy!well said mate!
the task forces should arrest all homos and make them till the land free for the state. we cant let this canker go on in our own backyard, homosexuality may be a preference to some people, but same is trokosi and some occultic practices. It should has been there for ages, but the spate of growth will surely lead to them thinking they have the right as every one else. Homosexuals dont have the same right as “normal people” even in america, germany, uk and other gay friendly countries.
There is always something dodgy about homosexuals, and in Ghana, it was the weired nutters who were caught having a quickie with goats who progresses to soliciting the anus of teenage boys.
The evils of homosexuality and its after effects are enormous least about HIV and its cost to the whole country. I say identify them, then arrest and waterboard them and give them some lad mags, it may do the trick. we shouldnt budge into the west demands for silly human right arguments, all homos in ghana , should seek asylum in Iran or Yemen.
@dagodfather, well said again
@dagodfather,Back in SSS, there were stories of Supi-supi and many didn’t take it seriously and people leave high school then some continue. Seriously BNI has their plates full this time around.
@ghallday, very true, there were rumours back in those days and such people were always avoided cos, the belief was they will make hay if you let them see where the sun doesn’t shine. regards the “spoilt” “bad girls”, i think it was about finding a substitute for boys during school term. but for it to be accepted as a norm and mainstream and for them to be accorded the same rights as “normal couples is absurd in our land.
Dis is wat the bni shd be doin & instead arresting harmless movie producers.Those human rights activists shd just give us a break wid their noise.Every right has a limit & so we wont tolerate & encourage any sort of nonsense in our beloved which has no benefits.If we continue like dis some pple will also come out with rights to have sex with their mothers,fathers,sons, daughters & even animals.It is not every thing dat is practised outside dat shd be allowed in our country cos we’re unique.Will those homosexual idiots be existing if their parents decided to be gays or lesbians?Who shd give birth 4 them to take as their partners.Why shd I desire a man wen der are lots of pretty ladies out der?Kmt.
@TheChuckylee, couldnt agree with you more
Hmmmm…na waa ooh…
We are tired of being influenced with the stupid western lifestyles they call human rights and freedom of this and that. The older homos take advantage of the young guys in the society thereby turning them into other homos. Tell the so call human right (westners and western influnce) that because they want to have their way with us they come and introduce human right. Its high time they know that we would want our society to be like their societies (i mea positively). Our family lives are already down and homosexaulity will compound the problems. they should give us a break!!!
.The BNI is bein foolish wasting their time but stupid people like u guys will support them so no wonder.Not agreeing with what someone do is ok but expressing this level of hatred leads me to believe u guys are closet homosexuals urselves.See how miyagi is riding dogfather’s dick..he is cosigning everythng he says…LOL!!!…And as for Dee Jay,some old guy did that u right?…haha.Chuckylee is also another homophobe.I bet he is the one who’s ass is fucked every night.Instead of pressing the government to improve ur villages,u are here talking shit!!..You must have miserable lives!!……Hasta La Vista f*ckers!…..LMAO
