On 24 February, National Security raided the offices of LGBT+ Rights Ghana. It came not long after the organisation opened a new LGBTQI+ safe space to provide members support and a place to socialise.
Sharing the incident in a Twitter thread, the gay rights organisation said:
This morning, our office was raided by National Security. A few days ago, traditional leaders threatened to burn down our office but the police did not help.
At this moment, we no longer have access to our safe space and our safety is being threatened. We call on all human rights organizations, and allies to speak out against these attacks and hate crimes we are being subjected to.
