A top legal expert thinks the court went overboard when sentencing Patricia Asiedu to prison. The woman known as Nana Agradaa received fifteen years behind bars for running a fake money scheme. Godwin Edudzi Tamaklo runs the National Petroleum Authority and believes the punishment was harsh. He posted on social media that first-time criminals deserve lighter sentences. The lawyer thinks judges should consider someone's criminal history before handing down such severe penalties.

Judge Evelyn Asamoah delivered the verdict at the Accra Circuit Court last Thursday. The former witch doctor turned church leader convinced people she could magically double their cash. Her television show during 2022 attracted victims who believed her supernatural claims. Patricia collected large amounts of money from desperate believers hoping for financial miracles. The fake evangelist promised spiritual powers that never existed.

Police arrested the Heaven Way Church leader during November 2022 after complaints poured in. Her members discovered the truth about her Sika Gari money scam and felt betrayed. Many victims posted angry videos online showing how she had tricked them. The court found her guilty of false advertising and fraud charges. Patricia must serve her sentence with hard labor at a government prison.
