Seasoned Journalist, Kwesi Pratt Jnr. is peeved with churches threatening the anti-LGBTQ+ bill fighters.

Kwesi Pratt Jnr., sounding biblical on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' programme, asked the churches to first remove the plank in their eyes before they criticize the group against the passage of the bill.

He wondered why the churches have left their many immoral activities behind to descend on the opposers of the bill.

"What have they said about the paedophile issues in the church? How many of them have come out to give evidence against the paedophiles in the church and so on? How many of them?'', he questioned.

"If we're talking about moral issues, they also talk too; meanwhile the situation in some of the churches is horrible. It's alarming, destroying lives, destroying families and so on," he further fumed.

Mr. Pratt's comments come on the heels of a warning by the Church of Pentecost to Members of Parliament who vote against the bill.

The General Secretary of the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Alexander Kumi Larbi, in an interview with Citi FM, said; “Our position is that we do not want this thing. The Church of Pentecost is 10.3 percent of the Ghanaian population. It is not about legal issues but morality. Within 48 hours, we have 15,000 signatories so if we give ourselves a week, all the 3 million members of the Church will sign. So if the MPs vote against this Bill, we also campaign against them in their constituencies. They were voted to go and defend what we want. So our position is that we are not in support of LGBT.”
