Ghanaian associations in South Africa have threatened to mobilize and sponsor people in both Ghana and South Africa to campaign against the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) government ahead of the 2020 general elections if the controversial Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) programme education is approved.
According to them, President Akufo-Addo and the ministry of education together with the Ghana Education Service (GES) posture suggest they are welcoming Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) which is against Ghanaian culture and norms.
Speaking on “Ghana Te Sen” show on South Africa – based Press Radio hosted by Solomon Ogyem popularly called King Solo on Saturday,5th September 2019, Chairman of Ghanaian Community of Butterworth in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa, Mr. Stephen Kojo Wulingminga stated that he is convinced that nothing good will come out of the programme.
“Let the NPP government know that they can’t take Ghanaian culture and norms for granted and if they allow this satanic programme to be approved then the 2020 general elections is going to be difficult for them” he stated.
Adding that “ tell them a word to a wise is enough, I am the community leader here and my people are very angry over the mistake they are making, they should not think that they are doing something better to improve the economy they can be doing apartheid things like CSE. The community is sending a warning to them as a ruling party that if they are not careful they would lose the elections and they would not understand”.
The resistance against the planned introduction of Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) into the basic school curriculum is intensifying as churches, politicians and graduate teachers join in.
The Ghana government and United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) launched the CSE programme this year in a bid to empower adolescents and young people to attain a Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE).
Known as the “Our right, Our lives, Our Future (O³), CSE is supported by governments of Sweden and Ireland.
Meanwhile, President Akufo-Addo says he will not approve the controversial Comprehensive Sexuality Education Programme for schools in Ghana.
Speaking at the St Cyprians Anglican Church at Kumasi Sunday, the President said his vision is to promote national development and not immorality.
