Bukom Banku Appeals to President Mahama for Agradaa’s Release
Retired Ghanaian boxer Braimah Kamoko, known as Bukom Banku, has made an emotional public plea to President John Dramani Mahama regarding imprisoned former fetish priestess Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, popularly called Nana Agradaa.
In a viral video circulating on social media, Bukom Banku broke down in tears while asking the President to show compassion toward the jailed religious figure. The entertainer’s emotional appeal has sparked widespread discussion across Ghana’s online platforms.
Nana Agradaa, who transformed from a traditional fetish priestess to a Christian evangelist, currently faces legal challenges that led to her imprisonment. The former spiritual leader gained notoriety for her controversial religious practices before publicly converting to Christianity.
Bukom Banku’s tearful request highlights the complex relationship between Ghana’s entertainment figures and religious personalities. The boxer-turned-entertainer has previously involved himself in public advocacy for various causes.
President Mahama has not yet responded to the emotional appeal. The video’s viral spread demonstrates the significant public interest in both personalities and their respective legal situations.
The appeal comes amid ongoing discussions about Ghana’s justice system and the treatment of religious figures who have undergone spiritual transformations. Agradaa’s case continues to generate debate about redemption, legal accountability, and presidential clemency powers.
The emotional nature of Bukom Banku’s plea has resonated with many Ghanaians who follow both celebrities closely.
