The 15-year-old Naa Okromo, who was purportedly married to the Chief Priest, Nuumo Borketey Laweh Tsuru XXXIII, has returned, according to the Office of the Gborbu-Wulomo in the Nungua Traditional Area.

This comes after the government promised that, upon the girl’s signing of a bond, she would be reunited with her parents on Thursday, April 18.

The girl’s required rites have started, according to Tsetse Nii Bortey Kofi Frankwa II, the spokesperson for the Office of the Gborbu-Wulomo, who spoke with Citi News.

“I can confirm that by the help of God, we have Naa Yoomo Ayemuede and we have started with the cleansing rites and the purification rites for her to be able to perform her duties.”

On the Attorney General’s orders, the 15-year-old girl was returned to her parents. It was also determined by a medical and psychological evaluation that she was not pregnant.

At a press conference on Thursday afternoon, Dakoa Newman, the Minister Designate for Gender, Children, and Social Protection, disclosed the development.

“The attorney general has issued an interim report which is dated April 18, 2024, and has advised that in the best interest of the child and in accordance with Sections 2 and 5 of the Children’s Act, the child should be released to her parent pending their complete review of the docket.

“Thus, the child will be reunited with her family today, April 18, 2024, after her parents have signed a bond” she stated.
