Nana Agradaa’s church member speaks on ridicule
The former member of Nana Agradaa’s congregation attended the church for three years before quitting.
She was an original member who joined the church just two weeks after it was formed.
According to her, people in public transport vehicles she picked frequently started arguments with her when they realised her destination.
“When we take public transport and alight at the church, people insult us, claiming we only attend the church because we are hungry and need money from Agradaa. I always fought those people and defended myself,” she said.
She added that the final straw was when a radio presenter called members of Nana Agradaa’s church ‘unintelligent.’
The former church member acknowledged that Nana Agradaa helped her out, but she still left to save her dignity.
“She always gave me money when I attended church. When my children got ill, she gave me money to take care of them. She was very good to me and never treated me badly, but I had to stop because the insults were too much,” she said.
