Richard Asare Baffour, lawyer for repented popular Ghanaian former fetish priestess evangelist Patricia Asiedua, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, has described her 15-year prison sentence as excessive and unjust, arguing that the decision was influenced by public pressure rather than evidence.
Speaking to the media after the Accra Circuit Court handed down the sentence, Agradaa's legal counsel, Richard Asare Baffour, claimed that Ghanaians have long desired to see his client behind bars due to her controversial past and outspoken nature. "The woman has become hated because she has stepped on many toes, and they wanted to punish her.
So, what Ghanaians were looking for, they have gotten it.
But the circuit court has spoken, and we will go to a higher court to appeal," Baffour said.
