President John Dramani Mahama has restated his firm commitment to Ghana’s traditional family and moral values, declaring that gender is determined at birth and affirming the family as the bedrock of the nation’s identity and social fabric.
Speaking during a courtesy visit by leaders of the Christian Council of Ghana in Accra on Tuesday, November 18, the President made clear that his position aligns fully with that of the Council on issues of family, gender, and social norms.
“A person’s gender is determined at birth, and the family is the foundation of our nation. That is our position. So there are no questions or equivocations about what we believe,” he emphasised.

President Mahama reiterated that his views are wholly consistent with the stance of the Christian Council, noting, “I believe that we are completely aligned with the Christian Council in terms of your belief.”
Touching on the controversial bill currently before Parliament, the President expressed support for the Speaker’s call for it to be reintroduced and thoroughly debated to allow for any necessary adjustments or clarifications.
“We agree with the Speaker to relay the bill and let Parliament debate it, and then if there are any amendments or whatever that have to be done,” he said.
Mahama stressed that the final decision must reflect the will of Ghana’s elected representatives and the broader populace. He reaffirmed his commitment to uphold the democratic process in determining the fate of the bill.
“If the Parliament of the people of Ghana endorses the bill, votes on it and passes it, and it comes to me as President, I will sign it,” he declared.
