LGBTQ+ community needs love and deliverance – Sonnie Badu Asserts

Ghanaian gospel musician and pastor Sonnie Badu, has asserted that understanding the struggles of the LGBTQ+ community is key to effectively supporting them.

According to the ‘Money Declaration’ hitmaker,  LGBTQ+ behaviors often stem from feelings of insecurity and rejection by parents.

During a conversation with Asaase Radio’s Keely-Jade Brewer on the Between Hours show on Thursday, September 19, Sonnie Badu stressed that “love” is the most important thing they need. He also pointed out that many people in same-sex relationships have been victims of abuse or sexual assault.

 “So, it’s got to do with serious transfers of spirits. So, right there, you know that deliverance has to take place.

 “So you show them love and then you take them through counselling, and then you take them through deliverance and that’s how God has used us to help a lot of people in Atlanta,” he said.

Explaining why some individuals feel misgendered, the crooner said, “When some young men are born, their mothers expect them to be a girl, and out of disappointment, they feel rejected.”

The award-winning singer emphasized that the issues within the LGBTQ+ community are often more spiritual than physical, which contributes to a lack of understanding surrounding these experiences.


“That’s where you have to understand that it’s more spiritual than physical because I do counselling and if a girl is abused or raped, sex is something she wouldn’t want to do.


“You’d have to literally counsel her through because I’ve counselled women who are married but are struggling in that area because they have a past trauma. I’ve been able to let them understand that this is not who you are. You became it for a reason and most of them happen to them because of single parenting,” he explained.

 He continued; “Let’s say you have a son who you’ve left their father or out of whatever you have to raise that child alone. All that the boy sees is a woman dressing up, a woman making up, a woman wearing high heels. So, we’re feeding his visual cortex and once the visual cortex is fed, information is shot to the mind.

 “So, they get in touch more with their feminine side, everybody has a male side and a feminine side. One is subdued, the other is not. When you understand this, you will understand how to help them or handle them.”
