The Amasaman High Court has delivered a major legal victory for the controversial self-styled evangelist Nana Agradaa, drastically reducing her prison sentence from 15 years down to a mere 12 months.
While the court maintained that her conviction was valid, the presiding judges ruled that the original sentence—which included hard labour—was “unduly severe” and “disproportionate” to the nature of her crimes.
Under this new ruling, Agradaa is expected to finish her term by mid-2026, marking a significant departure from the decade-plus stint she was originally facing.
The High Court exercised its discretionary powers to correct what it viewed as a legal overreach.
While the judges acknowledged the gravity of her actions, they concluded that the initial punishment exceeded the bounds of reasonable law.
Nana Agradaa, a former fetish priestess who famously rebranded herself as a Christian leader, landed in legal hot water over a 2022 televised broadcast. During the program, she claimed to have supernatural powers to multiply money—a practice often referred to as “charlatanic advertisement.”
