  "account": "Following the recent discharge of Nana Akua Addo's husband from the hospital, the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection has taken steps to ensure the welfare of the family, particularly the children. Minister Dr Agnes Naa Momo Lartey led the engagement with Norman Harold, after an earlier visit could not be conducted due to his medical treatment. The priority is to safeguard the family's emotional and physical welfare, with a focus on providing a safe and stable environment for the children. Dr Lartey stressed the importance of addressing the situation promptly to protect their development. The Ministry pledged to provide psychosocial and social welfare support to maintain the children's emotional wellbeing. Social welfare officers will now monitor the children's safety and best interests. The Ministry also seeks to collaborate with the Police and other institutions to investigate the incident. Reports of visible injuries on Nana Akua Addo and footage of physical violence against a child have prompted this response. The Police have stated they will arraign the husband in court following his discharge from the hospital.",
