Nana Akua Addo’s husband to face court after hospital discharge – Police
The Ghana Police Service says Harold Norman, husband of Ghanaian fashion icon Rosemond Akua Adobea, popularly known as Nana Akua Addo, will be arraigned as soon as he is discharged from hospital.
The Police issued the assurance following the circulation of videos and photographs on social media allegedly involving Nana Akua Addo and her child. Some of the footage appears to show the fashion icon with injuries reportedly sustained during an alleged physical altercation.
Other footage purportedly shows her child being subjected to physical violence.
In a statement dated Wednesday, October 7, 2026, the Police said the Director-General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) received a petition from Nana Akua Addo on August 20, in which she alleged that her husband had subjected her to physical, emotional and economic abuse.
According to the Police, preliminary investigations established that the couple had previously been brought before the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU) at the Lakeside and Ministries Police Stations in July 2026.
After receiving the petition, investigators arrested Harold Norman at his residence on August 27 to assist with the investigation.
He was subsequently cautioned and granted Police enquiry bail on August 29 with two sureties while investigations continued.
The Police said Norman was scheduled to appear before court on Wednesday, October 7, but his lawyer informed investigators that he had been admitted to hospital and was therefore unable to attend court.
“Investigators from DOVVSU have visited the said hospital to verify the claim and are monitoring the situation to ensure he is arraigned immediately upon discharge from the hospital,” the Police said.
The CID, together with the Ministry of Gender, is also working to provide social welfare support to Nana Akua Addo and her child.
