Huge announcements advancing LGBTQ resilience have been destroyed in Ghana's capital and different regions this month in the wake of starting shock in the West African country.
Gay sex is unlawful in moderate, profoundly strict Ghana, however a proposed regulation will condemn even LGBTQ backing and force longer prison terms for same-sex relations.
The "Advancement of legitimate it human sexual freedoms and Ghanaian family values" bill is in parliament, however was broadly censured by the global local area and privileges activists.
LGBTQ activists said they set up banners a few meters high in Accra and two different urban communities, with expressions, for example, "Love, Resilience and Acknowledgment".
The banners immediately provoked calls from traditionalists for police to bring them down.
"Insofar as they mount those bulletins, we would cut them down," resistance legislator Samuel George, one of the patrons of the new regulation, said on Twitter this week.
One more banner was brought down in the northern locale of Tamale on Wednesday.
Recordings and photographs posted via web-based entertainment networks showed a few cut banners, in a pile on the ground.
LGBTQ Privileges Ghana, the lobbyist bunch that set up the banners, said their message in Accra, Kumasi and Tamale was just to advance resistance.
They said they had violated no regulations to advocate for their freedoms.
"The boards are our approach to reminding and praising the magnanimous culture of Ghanaians," the gathering said in an explanation.
"LGBTQ Freedoms Ghana and its individuals are well behaved residents."
Extremist gatherings say the new bill is a difficulty for basic liberties in Ghana and have approached President Nana Akufo-Addo's administration to dismiss it.
In any case, the bill is generally upheld in Ghana, where Akufo-Addo has said gay marriage won't ever be permitted while he is in power.
Ghana's Anglican priests likewise supported the bill, saying LGBTQ convictions were "exploitative and profane" and furthermore against Ghanaian custom and culture.
LGBTQ represents lesbian, gay, sexually unbiased, transsexual and strange.
The greater part the nations in sub-Saharan African have regulations against homosexuality, with some rebuffing it with capital punishment under sharia regulation, despite the fact that there have been no known advanced executions.
