Nobody dislikes her passion to defend the rights of every person in Ghana. But for a leader to support Gay and Lesbians, the children who are looking up to you might think it is OK to do it, in other words, you are supporting the act in proxy.

I love this argument or debate.

Sherita is dressed in Kente, but she is a bad reflection on the mind of our women.
It looks like she does not understand the issues at stake at all. Ghana will pay an increasingly heavy price for keeping our women down, and away from ideas which set humans free.
Where did the CPP get her from? And where did she get that 'Sherita' from?
Samia should have ran for the Presidency herself. At least, Samia understands the issues. Not this Queen of a woman who probably knows everything in the Bible, but almost nothing about what a progressive Ghana should be doing.

What does this mean> what does she have to learn? you say things without thinking, I guess that is your right. for your information 80% of the Ghanaians you know so well are against homosexuality. All she is asking is the ministry of children be removed from her portfolio while Ghanaians debate the issue. where is the insult coming from? who is she suppose to learn from?

Conservetive minded woman and wanting to rule Ghana.What improvement would you have brought us all?.Ghanaians are out of tune with modernisation.That is why a hand full can hi-jack the entire counrty into their hands.Most Ghanaians has that level of thinking about what to eat alone.Your children behind close doors practise immorality.When an intelligent comes out with open ideas about how best to manage such a situation you cry hell on her.

What is ignorance? Simply put your failure to look at logic behind divergent views or accepting that someone else could be right and everybody else wrong.

What is modern about puting your penis in your fellow male's anus or mouth? Are you not sick? Who should bring forth a male for you to use as your gay partner? or bring forth a female for you to be used as a lesbian partner? Gays and lesbians have rights just like drunkards but we will not promote drunkeness just like we will not promote the activities of gays and lesbians.

Mr. President don't mind agitations from voltarians over your appointments, they are greedy and vicious.If there should any complains then it should come from the Akans in the NDC because their population far outnumber that of the Voltarians so remain focus and do what is right and will help you to even woo more people into our folds than allowing few inexperience people to create hatred for us by their utterances

Fellow Ghanaians, can someone explain to me why a human rights lawyer like Nana Oye Lithur must be condemned cos she is defending human beings just like you and I? Can some one please remeber the other good opinions she has made for other human beings and stop hammering on gay issues which is accepted in ghana but on the blind side........................! Ghanaians please give us a break! Mr. President, i can assure you she is the best for the job.......! and i promise you, you will never regret! Anyone who has never sinned before should pls pick the peck in his/her. eyes before condemning the hard working/dynamic mother, defender of the poor!

Dear Mrs. Oye Lithur! almost majority of Ghanaians do not want your serviceses as a Minister, why don`t you withdraw your nomination. It will be a very due respect and honour for you to do that. You are an intellectual/academecian, and please think like an intellectual/academician. I give you an example of Amb. Susana Rice (USA Rep. at the UNO) of USA, she was nominated for the Secretary of State, and as soon as her people begin to criticse her, she withdrew her name, and retain her prestige. Please do the same. I forsee you will not get peace to discharge your duties, even if you go through the Vetting.

You are a stupid bastard and a disgrace to whatever we stand for as decent Ghanaians. Next time before you open your stupid mouth on noble personalities who have worked so hard for the youth and children of Ghana, check your facts.

Whatever you call her, first to all the mothers in your stupid home. You are a disgrace to your family. Your life and that of your family is not worth writing about.

I single check and you will know how ignorant you are. I guess I don't need to continue wasting my time on you. but for the other readers you will not be worth any response. Take that title Alhaji from your name it's not befitting of such characters as you.

she is not asking for Nana Oye's disqualification, she is asking the ministry of children be removed from her portfolio. Its about strong views on the matter and the fact that it's still open for debate in the public. For your information this lady already has a voice. You will be shocked to hear the things she has done for the children and youth of Ghana without making it public.

The sentiments against homosexuality is very strong in Ghana and Oye's position is clear, the children of Ghana must be left out of this debate. unless we have an agenda we should not mix the children's ministry. plain and simple. If you can't see this no brainer common sense then I am sorry.

She recently was on the news giving one thousand children and old people in very deprived communities NHIS registration to have access to healthcare when needed. Don't attack people when you do not agree with their views. Check GTV about a week ago.
