Gborbu marriage: It's time to end 'outdated' customs 'harmful' to girls' future and education - Jana Foundation

The Jana Foundation has condemned the marriage of a 15-year-old girl to a 63-year-old traditional priest in Nungua, Greater Accra Region. Nuumo Borketey Laweh XXXIII, the Gborbu Wulomo, faced widespread backlash after a video of his customary marriage to Naa Okromo, who was first reported to be 12 years old but later had her age corrected twice -- first as 13 and later as 15 -- surfaced online.
