The Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, Sam Nartey George has heavily criticised the Vice President of the United States of America Kamala Harris for her comment that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQI) are human right issues.[ads2]
Kamala Harris speaking at a joint press conference at the Jubilee House when she arrived in Ghana for her three-day visit stated that she is an advocate when it comes to fighting and supporting for the cause of human rights including rights of LGBTQs.
“For the American press who are here, you know that a great deal of work in my career has been to address human rights issues, equality issues across the globe including as well as the LGBTQ community and I feel very strongly about the importance of supporting freedom and supporting and fighting for quality among all people.”[ads3]
And Sam Nartey George who has been a huge promoter of proper human sexual rights and Ghanaian family values bill otherwise known as the Anti-Gay Bill believes Kamala Harris should be the last person to talk about human rights abuse in Ghana since it is worst in her country.
“Kamala Harris is not the SI Unit for Human rights. She is actually one of the last people in the world who should be talking about human rights”, Sam George said on TV3 on Tuesday, March 28, 2023.[ads4]
“As Vice President of the United States, she comes from a country where human rights abuses are rife. In fact, barely two hours after she finished making those comments that she was interested in human rights, in her own country a 28-year-old woman walked into a school building and killed three children and teachers.
“I believe that a Vice President who has been elected and is concerned about human rights should be concerned about the children in school that they should be able to have a decent education without fearing that indiscriminate gun violence will end their lives. Gun violence is a human rights issue. hs has not been able to deal with those issues”, he added.[ads5]
