Joyful moment at Ghana’s female prison goes viral as inmates mark birthday following Agradaa’s popular presence.
A heartwarming moment at Nsawam Female Prison has gone viral on social media after a young lady was seen joyfully celebrating her birthday in the facility, shortly after the recent incarceration of evangelist Patricia Asiedua, popularly known as Nana Agradaa.
In a video circulating online, the woman, dressed in white, is seen surrounded by other inmates, clapping and singing with joy. The celebration appears to have taken place in a modest prison yard, but the enthusiasm and emotion displayed by the inmates told a much deeper story.
The scene, surprisingly cheerful, follows a period of public attention drawn toward the prison after Agradaa’s sentencing. Her presence in the facility seems to have brought an unusual amount of public and media focus to the female wing of the Nsawam Prison.

Observers speculate that the attention surrounding Agradaa may have made prison authorities more lenient toward organized group activities, though officials have yet to comment on the celebration.
Reactions on social media have been mixed. While many praised the human spirit of the inmates and found the video inspiring, others questioned the appropriateness of recording such footage inside a high-security facility.
Regardless, the birthday video has resonated with Ghanaians online, serving as a reminder of joy and community—even behind bars. Some users even commented that “Agradaa’s presence may have changed the entire vibe of the place.”
As the video continues to make rounds, many are calling for reforms that allow for more humane treatment and social engagement in prisons, especially for women and first-time offenders.
The birthday girl, whose identity remains unknown, has unintentionally become a symbol of hope and resilience. Her story may be short, but the impact is already lasting.
