Five students at Presbyterian Boys Secondary have been suspended indefinitely for engaging in homosexual activity.
According to details obtained by Rainbowradiionline.com, two of the students recorded themselves engaged in sexual behaviour.
The three other pupils were reported by other students
It has been claimed that the school administration remained silent and attempted to cover up the incident until the video was posted on social media.
Meanwhile, the clause-by-clause consideration of the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill 2022 by Parliament has been concluded.
However, the third reading of the bill was suspended until further notice.
This is to give the committee and sponsors time to synchronise work done and to allow for a second consideration if need be.
The House also imposed a six-month custodial sentence or less on individuals who aid, facilitate, encourage, or promote LGBTQ activities.
Those found guilty of promoting LGBTQ activities will face a minimum sentence of three months and a maximum of six months, or a fine of GH₵600 minimum to GH₵1200.
The bill is to among other things provide for proper human sexual rights and Ghanaian family values, and proscribe lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex (LGBTQI) and related matters.
