Have their rites been infringed upon?\u201d he quizzed.<\/p>\n<p>Naa Yoomo Ayemuede, has been in the care of older women known as Godmothers for six years, preparing her for adulthood as a queen.<\/p>\n<p>Aawon fifiankon Opobi, one of the Godmothers explained that the traditional rites have never interfered with her academics.<\/p>\n<p>Aawon said \u201cShe was in school all week until the weekend when the rites were performed. And she will return to school. We already asked permission from the school. She\u2019s a queen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The public is still upset about the significance of the tradition, despite the fact that some Nungua residents deem it harmless.<\/p>\n<p>One resident, madam Julie who shared her opinion said \u201cit\u2019s a tradition and it must be preserved. There\u2019s nothing wrong with it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>A Senior Lecturer at the Department of Sociology, University of Ghana, Dr Samson Obed Appiah believes that society is dynamic and cultural practices must evolve in line with current trends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI heard what the Wulomo said that the girl will not perform conjugal rights to the chief priest, but society is evolving and so in as much as these cultures and traditions have been with the people for long, they must find a way to revolve around the current laws of the country.
