The vetting process for Agnes Naa Momo Lartey, the Minister of Gender, Children, and Social Protection-designate, is currently underway as the Appointments Committee of Parliament assesses her qualifications and suitability for the critical role.

The 11-member committee is expected to delve into key areas such as the Affirmative Action Bill, the welfare of school feeding caterers, the rise in cases of child labour, and other significant issues within the Ministry’s scope.

Born on April 16, 1976, in Krowor in the Greater Accra Region, Naa Momo is a seasoned politician and a well-known advocate for social justice. Her career has been marked by her unwavering dedication to women’s and children’s rights, as well as her active grassroots mobilisation.

Over the years, she has earned a reputation for her passion for social issues and her commitment to improving the lives of vulnerable groups, particularly women and children.

As her vetting continues, the Appointments Committee is expected to scrutinise her plans and vision for addressing the pressing issues within the Ministry, alongside her experience and readiness to take on the responsibilities of the role.
