Justice Alexander Osei Tutu of the Court of Appeal Bench argues, in this edition of his Friday Writings that Section 41(3)(c) of the the Matrimonial Causes Act, 1971 (Act 367) retaining barrenness as a ground for the dissolution of customary marriages is constitutionally infirm, empirically unsupported, procedurally unfair, doctrinally inconsistent and internationally non-compliant. Justice Osei Tutu argues, that the said section violates Articles 17(2) & 26 (2) of the 1992 Constitution per Nartey v. Gati, breaches its own equity proviso, and denies audi alteram partem by allowing elders to declare a woman barren with no medical proof. It discriminates per se, as there is no equivalent ground for male infertility. Using Breast Cancer Awareness Month as a lens – the womb as the object – and drawing on Daniels, Fortes, Yankah, WHO data and the 2021 Census, he calls for reforms.
