“Let No Man Claim Credit”: Amasaman High Court Judge Cautions Prophets After Agradaa’s Sentence Reduction

The Amasaman High Court has issued a strong warning to self-styled prophets and religious figures following the reduction of evangelist Patricia Asiedua, popularly known as Agradaa’s prison sentence, stressing that no spiritual authority should claim credit for a judicial decision grounded strictly in law.

Court Rejects Spiritual Claims Over Judicial Decisions

During proceedings, the presiding judge cautioned that the reduction of Agradaa’s sentence must not be attributed to prophecies, prayers or spiritual interventions. The court emphasised that sentencing and sentence reviews are matters of law, guided by legal principles and due process, not supernatural influence.

Agradaa’s Sentence Reduced by the Court

Agradaa, a former traditional priestess turned evangelist, recently had her sentence reduced by the Amasaman High Court after a legal review of her case. The court considered factors permitted under Ghanaian law, including procedural issues and statutory sentencing guidelines, leading to the adjustment.

Warning to Religious Leaders

The judge’s remarks were directed particularly at prophets and pastors who often rush to the media to claim responsibility for favourable court outcomes involving high-profile personalities. The court warned that such claims mislead the public, undermine confidence in the judiciary and distort the rule of law.

Respect for the Rule of Law

The Amasaman High Court reaffirmed that Ghana’s justice system operates independently and must be respected as such. Judges, the court stressed, do not consult prophets, pastors or spiritual leaders when delivering rulings. Every decision is based solely on evidence, legal arguments and the applicable laws of the land.

Public Urged to Ignore False Narratives

The court further urged the public to disregard narratives suggesting that spiritual power can override judicial authority. Legal analysts say the judge’s comments serve as a timely reminder of the importance of judicial independence, especially in cases involving controversial religious figures.

Nana Yeboah Questions Agradaa’s Imprisonment, Raises Doubts Over Court Appearances

Kumawood actor and outspoken commentator Nana Yeboah has openly questioned claims that controversial evangelist Agradaa is currently serving a prison sentence, citing what he describes as “very strange” developments surrounding her court appearances.

According to Nana Yeboah, every time Agradaa is reportedly brought before the court for hearings, her face is completely covered with a veil, making it impossible for the public to clearly identify her. He argues that this practice is unusual and inconsistent with how other high-profile figures have been treated by the justice system.

He further raised concerns about the manner in which female police officers tightly surround her whenever she appears in public, suggesting that the heavy shielding seems designed to prevent onlookers from getting a clear view of her face.

“It’s very weird,” Nana Yeboah stated. “They cover her face fully and move her quickly as if they don’t want the crowd to notice something.”

The actor compared Agradaa’s situation to that of other politically exposed or controversial figures such as Abronye DC and Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Wuntumi), both of whom faced legal processes publicly without having their faces hidden.

“People like Abronye and Wuntumi faced the law openly. Their faces were never concealed. So why is Agradaa different?” he questioned.

Nana Yeboah went on to suggest two possibilities: either Agradaa is not actually in prison, as authorities claim, or she may have been secretly flown out of the country under undisclosed circumstances.

While he admitted he has no official proof, Nana Yeboah emphasized that the inconsistencies surrounding Agradaa’s public appearances raise legitimate questions that deserve clarification.

His comments have since sparked intense debate on social media, with some agreeing that the secrecy fuels suspicion, while others argue that security or legal reasons could explain the measures taken.

As of now, no official response has been issued by the Ghana Police Service or judicial authorities addressing Nana Yeboah’s claims.

The situation continues to attract public attention, adding another layer of controversy to Agradaa’s already high-profile legal troubles.
