Media personality and broadcast journalist, Ola Michael, has urged Ghanaians not to hastily judge the current ordeal of evangelist Patricia Asiamah, popularly known as Nana Agradaa.
He has maintained that Agradaa’s husband, Angel Asiamah’s claims that her imprisonment was part of a divine mission may be true.
Speaking on Neat FM’s Entertainment GH, on July 7, 2025, Ola Michael challenged listeners, stating, “Don’t laugh, for all we know, this may come true. What if this imprisonment is a calling by God?
“What if God is using this as an opportunity for her to finally build her faith from prison and begin preaching the gospel from scratch?”
Ola Michael emphasised that Angel Asiamah’s interpretation shouldn’t be dismissed, “So let’s not laugh. Angel Asiamah could actually be saying the truth.”
On July 4, 2025, Patricia Asiamah, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, was sentenced by an Accra Circuit Court to fifteen years in prison with hard labour, alongside a GH₵300 fine for charlatanic advertisement.
The case centred on two counts of defrauding by false pretences and charlatanic advertisement.
The prosecution detailed how Agradaa, a former fetish priestess turned evangelist, promised to multiply people’s money and distribute large sums of cash.
These claims later proved false and deceptive.
Fast forward after her arrest and final ruling, Agradaa’s legal counsel, Richard Asare-Baffour, announced plans to appeal the decision, criticising the court’s rationale as too harsh.
