“I am the happiest man on earth,” he said.
His brief but emotional comments have since captured the relief felt by relatives and supporters who had gathered at the premises after the hearing.
Background
Agradaa is currently serving her sentence at the Nsawam Female Prison after an Accra Circuit Court handed her a 15-year conviction on July 3, 2025, for charlatanic advertising and defrauding by false pretences.
She was accused of collecting various sums of money from church attendees after promoting supposed money-doubling powers.
Prosecutors based their case on her activities on Today’s TV and several social media platforms, where she advertised the scheme and encouraged the public to attend an all-night church service, promising to double their money through spiritual intervention.
More than 1,000 people reportedly attended the service and handed over large sums of cash. However, the promise was not fulfilled, leaving many financially distressed.
Agradaa and her lawyers subsequently filed an appeal and first appeared before the Amasaman High Court on December 4, 2025.
In her appeal documents, she argued that the trial was unfair, the evidence did not support the ruling, and the 15-year sentence was excessive.
