Legal representative Richard Asare Baffour, counsel to evangelist and former traditional priestess Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, has rejected ongoing claims that she has not yet been placed in Nsawam Female Prison following her sentencing.
His statement comes in response to remarks by Crime Check Foundation’s Director, Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng, who asserted that their investigation revealed Nana Agradaa had not yet been moved to the correctional facility, despite her sentencing occurring days ago.
Speaking in an interview on Wednesday, July 9, Baffour confirmed that his client is indeed at the Nsawam Female Prison and noted he was en route to visit her.
“She’s currently at Nsawam Prison, and I’ll be there shortly myself,” he said. “The stories going around suggesting otherwise are completely unfounded.”
He went on to clarify that Agradaa was sentenced the previous Thursday, and her transfer only took place once the necessary paperwork was completed.
“There were administrative procedures that needed to be finalized. Once everything was in order, she was taken to Nsawam. As far as I’m aware, she’s there,” Baffour added.
He further revealed that the legal team has submitted all required documentation, and a ruling on their bail request is expected by next Tuesday.
“The filings are complete, and we anticipate the court’s decision on our bail application next week,” he stated confidently.
Baffour wrapped up his comments with an appeal for calm among supporters: “I encourage all Ghanaians and Agradaa’s followers to remain patient. In time, everything will fall into place.”
