Meanwhile, Coordinating Director of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU), Chief Supt. Owusuwaa Kyeremeh has said refusal to eat one’s spouse’s meal as a way of punishing your partner, constitutes domestic violence.

Guests who aided the discussion were Director of Legal Assistance Network Ghana and Executive Member of FIDA Ghana, Irene Aborchie and DOVVSU Coordinating Direcctor Chief Supt. Owusuaa Kyeremeh.
