Ghanaian social commentator Derrick Manny has alleged that he was assaulted by a group of men believed to be loyal followers of controversial evangelist and former fetish priestess, Nana Agradaa, also known as Evangelist Mama Pat.
According to Manny, the incident occurred after he made public statements criticizing Agradaa and questioning her activities. He claims the group of men, identified as Agradaa’s “boys,” physically attacked him in what he believes was a planned effort to intimidate him.
“I was attacked and beaten by Agradaa’s boys simply because I expressed my opinion,” Manny said in a public statement. “This is a clear attempt to silence me, but I won’t be intimidated.”
Pattern of Intimidation?
This is not the first time individuals associated with Nana Agradaa have been accused of using violence against critics. In the past, Evangelist Akwasi Appiah, also known as Appiah Biblical, alleged that he was assaulted by Agradaa’s followers with machetes after speaking out against her.
These recurring allegations have raised concerns about a growing trend of intimidation and the suppression of free speech within certain religious circles.
Public Reactions
Derrick Manny’s claims have drawn widespread attention and sparked conversations across social media. Many Ghanaians have condemned the alleged act and are calling on law enforcement agencies to investigate the matter thoroughly.
“We cannot let these kinds of attacks go unchecked. Everyone has the right to express their opinion without fear,” one social media user wrote.
Agradaa Yet to Respond
As of now, Nana Agradaa has not issued a response to the allegations made by Derrick Manny. Her silence has further fueled public curiosity, with many demanding that she address the claims directly.
Police Involvement
It remains unclear whether Derrick Manny has reported the incident to the Ghana Police Service. Authorities have yet to confirm whether an official investigation is underway.
Conclusion
The allegation by Derrick Manny is the latest in a series of troubling claims involving associates of Nana Agradaa. Whether or not legal action will follow remains uncertain, but the situation has reignited debate over freedom of expression, religious influence, and accountability.
As the public awaits further developments, one thing is clear—there is growing pressure for the truth to come to light and for justice to prevail if the claims are proven to be true.
