The Amasaman High Court Two has adjourned to December 4 the appeal application of Patricia Asiedua, popularly known as Nana Agradaa.
At the previous sitting, the Court realised that Agradaa’s supporting documents were incomplete and directed her to file all outstanding records, particularly those from the Circuit Court, which sentenced her on July 3, 2025.
However, when the case was called again on Thursday, the Court was still unable to proceed because the required documents were not before it, resulting in another adjournment to December 4, 2025.
Agradaa, dressed in a white long-sleeved top, white scarf, long black skirt and wearing a face mask, arrived under heavy escort from prison officers.
One officer led her while four others shielded her, with another behind her to prevent public attention.
A female prison officer also stopped onlookers from taking photos or video recordings.
She was quickly ushered into a waiting pickup truck, bending inside the vehicle to avoid being captured by cameras.
Her husband, child and other relatives were present to support her.
Agradaa, Founder of the Heaven Way International Ministry, is serving a 15-year sentence imposed by an Accra Circuit Court for fraud and charlatanic advertisement.
She was convicted by the Court, presided over by Mrs Evelyn Asamoah, although she denied the charges.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Emmanuel Haligah told the Court that on October 10, 2022, several complainants reported that Agradaa had collected various sums of money from them under the pretext of providing large returns.
Investigations revealed that five days earlier, she had advertised on Today’s TV and social media, promoting an all-night service where she promised to give GHC30,000 to participants to settle debts or support their businesses.
Bundles of cash were displayed in the advert.
Based on the advert, the complainants and others travelled to Accra for the service.
There, they were asked to form groups of 20, with each member required to pay GHC1,000 or more.
The groups were promised to be given between GHC25,000 and GHC50,000 to share.
Some of the groups paid GHC25,000, while others paid varying amounts.
Agradaa, however, failed to honour her promise, leaving many stranded.
Police investigations concluded that the advert was intended to defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
ASP Haligah noted that Agradaa had previously been convicted in 2021 for a similar offence and fined GHC10,000, or in default, to serve nine months in prison.
After her recent sentencing, defence counsel told journalists that they would appeal the Court’s decision, describing the sentence as harsh.
