    The victim is in custody, and the culprit is walking free. Justice, Ghanastyle.

    We're in election year. The NPP can't risk arresting a criminal wulomo and losing Nungua votes. If BBC hadn't carried the story nobody would have even lifted a finger.

    What nonsense are you writing. That bill was passed unanimously by both sides of the house. How can there be a political agenda by the minority endorsed by both sides of the house?

    @Guv'nor, the mother and child are not in jail. They are in protective custody to protect the girl from the pedophile traditional priest.

    Nii get out of the stone age.some so called rich cultural activities are outmoded. Modification is what is important. Shame on Akwetey and the people of Nungua for allowing such shameful act.

    Arrest the disgusting, old paedophile instead. The poor girl and her mother have not committed any crime. It’s the filthy, old hag who has, and who must be placed in police custody immediately. Jackasses!

    Should the minor attain 18 before any sex yet you're too weakend sleeping with your grand grand daughter. I initially admired Ga's but this has made me lose admiration for them.

    A Stool Wife. Who is criticizing the Ga Traditional Culture. Though she's married to the Wulomor, he got nothing to do with the Customary Wife. The girl is just A Symbol of that Stool. And nothing more.

    Why is there so much commotion about this child bride case as if it is news. If the Police have balls they should descend on Nogokpo and rescue the trokosis who are actually child virgins sacrificed as wives of the priest.
