Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, the Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West, has called on women to report incidents of coercion into oral and anal sex to the police during her LGBTQ Speech

During a speech on the promotion of proper sexual human rights and the Ghanaian family values bill, she emphasized that anal sex is illegal, regardless of gender.

She expressed concern over wives facing divorce threats for refusing to participate in such sexual acts and highlighted the importance of the proposed bill in addressing these issues.

To clarify the legality, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful stated,

Oral sex, anal sex regardless of whether it is between a woman and man, man and man, or woman and woman is illegal under our law. If there is anybody practicing oral sex or anal sex, please note that it is against the existing law of this country.

She urged any woman or young girl being subjected to such practices under the guise of heterosexual sex to seek help from the police, emphasizing that anal sex is considered unnatural carnal knowledge, and the use of sex toys also falls under this category.

Meanwhile, Bernard Ahiafor, the Member of Parliament for Akatsi South, stated that passing the bill on the promotion of proper sexual human rights and Ghanaian Family Values will not violate any international treaty.

During the parliamentary debate on the bill, Bernard Ahiafor, the Ranking Member on the Constitutional Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Committee, refuted concerns about potential breaches of international treaties. He stated that if the bill is passed into law, there will be no violation of Article 108 of the 1992 constitution of Ghana and no provision in any international treaty or convention will be violated.
