Nana Agradaa’s Jail Term Reduced from 15 Years to 12 Months

The Amasaman High Court has reduced the 15-year custodial sentence of controversial evangelist Nana Agradaa to 12 months, ruling that the original punishment was overly harsh.

While affirming her conviction, the court exercised its discretion to adjust the sentence, cutting it from the 15 years of hard labour initially imposed by the trial court.

The revised sentence will take effect retroactively from her conviction date on July 3, 2025, meaning Nana Agradaa will serve a total of one year in prison.

The court noted that although her offence warranted punishment, the severity of the initial sentence was disproportionate under the circumstances, justifying the downward adjustment.

Nana Agradaa, a former fetish priestess turned evangelist, was convicted earlier this year. Her original 15-year prison term sparked public debate and drew attention from legal analysts, prompting discussions about proportionality in sentencing.
