Evangelist Patricia Asiedua, widely known as Nana Agradaa, has issued a response to the defamation lawsuit filed against her by gospel musician Empress Gifty.
On May 20, 2025, Empress Gifty initiated legal proceedings at the Tema High Court, seeking GH¢20 million in damages over alleged defamatory statements and offensive language used by Nana Agradaa.
In reaction to the suit, Nana Agradaa has dismissed its significance, stating that she remains unfazed by the legal action.
She added that she would not engage in a back-and-forth with Empress Gifty or her supporters, stating that she has moved on and now associates with what she described as “classier people.”
“Any idiot can go to court. I’ve left the farm, I’m now dealing with classy people, so I don’t have time to come out and make any banter with no one,” she said.
Nana Agradaa also slammed Empress Gifty’s husband, Hopeson Adorye. She accused him of inciting violence against her and threatened to physically assault him if she ever cross path with him.
“If I catch Hopeson, I will beat him and for you, Gifty let me tell you, you can go to court 100 times, 200 times, I don’t give a damn,” Agradaa stated.
She added, “For you, stupid Hopeson Adorye, you go and sit on the radio to claim I am evil and inciting people to beat me to death. You have bypassed your wife to scold and humiliate me,” she fumed.
Nana Agradaa also insisted that she is not one of those people who are easily intimidated by lawsuits.
“I am not part of those people you can scare with legal actions or the court,” she said.
Agradaa announced her plans to retaliate by suing Hopeson Adorye in an international court.
She claimed she would demand compensation in dollars, which she said would be more than what Empress Gifty is demanding in her current lawsuit.
“If you sue me for 2 billion, I will also sue your husband for triple or more of that. I’m going to sue your husband in dollars, I will sue him in an international court and take dollars,” she declared.
