A new national survey has sent shockwaves through Ghana’s political space, revealing that a massive 85 percent of citizens are unhappy with the government’s position on LGBTQ+ issues.

Conducted by Africa Policy Lens, the poll captured thousands of responses nationwide, painting a picture of widespread dissatisfaction. The findings have ignited intense debate, with many questioning the government’s approach and calling for immediate clarity.

Observers warn that the issue could become a major political battleground if not addressed decisively.

With the 2028 elections in sight, this latest development may prove to be a turning point in Ghana’s political discourse.
