Former Ghanaian boxer, Braimah Kamoko, popularly known as Bukom Banku, has made a heartfelt appeal to President John Dramani Mahama, urging him to intervene in the case of Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, better known as Nana Agradaa, who was recently sentenced to 15 years in prison for fraud.
Agradaa, a former traditional priestess who later rebranded herself as a Christian evangelist, was convicted on July 3, 2025, by the Circuit Court in Accra for defrauding several of her followers. The court’s decision has been celebrated by many as a firm stand against spiritual exploitation and financial scams.
Despite the widespread support for the ruling, Bukom Banku has voiced his disapproval of the severity of the punishment. He described Agradaa’s incarceration as deeply painful and pleaded with Mahama to consider granting her a pardon. According to him, while Agradaa may have done wrong, a 15-year prison sentence was far too harsh and difficult for him to emotionally process.

Although advocating for mercy, Banku did not hesitate to condemn Agradaa’s repeated offenses. He criticized her for continuously finding herself in legal trouble, noting that despite her beauty and public platform, she had persisted in deceiving people, intimidating others through hired thugs, and publicly boasting about her misconduct on social media.
Banku’s comments revealed a mix of frustration and compassion. While acknowledging Agradaa’s wrongdoings, he warned that such a lengthy prison term could lead to her untimely death. He called on Mahama to act as a compassionate leader and look into her case from a human perspective, stressing that if Agradaa were anyone’s parent, the pain would be unbearable.
