Abstract
The article analyzes women’s rights and the practice of polygamy in Ghana. The various justifications given for the practice and the colonial attitude towards the practice are examined. The article focuses on how polygamy impacts the attainment of substantive equality for Ghanaian women. As the total abolition of polygamy would be a challenging and problematic objective at this stage, due to the entrenched nature of the practice, it is instead recommended that law be used to protect women in polygamous marriages from domestic violence and ensure their property rights.
