Advocates For Christ Ghana together with the Christian community is calling on all Ghanaians, especially delegates of the two main political parties to vote for the Members of Parliament sponsoring the bill on Proper human sexual rights and Ghanai family values. Mr. Edem Senanu, Chairman of Ghana’s leading Christian think-tank group A4CG – vocal supporters of the bill, commended the bold stance and commitment of the Parliamentarians: ‘These MP’s know the heritage of our family value system and recognize the need to protect it, hence using their resources, reputation and political power to initiate this bill.
