Reacting to this, the group in a Facebook post said: “While this unfortunate incident has happened, we wish to encourage all our members, and queer Ghanaians to stay calm. Do not panic.
“We will triumph."
“The police may have raided our office, and closed it down but the real office, is in our hearts, and minds.”
