A Ghanaian man who has finished serving his sentence the Nsawam Medium Security Prison has become a preacher.

Richard Nyarko, according to Crime Check, was sentenced to thirty-five years in prison for a crime he committed in 1994.

His appeal at the High Court against the conviction was rejected twice.

Bent on getting justice, he appealed his sentence the third time before a judge convinced his colleague judges who presided over Nyarko's case to reduce his sentence by ten years.

Having served the remainder of his reduced sentence, Richard Nyarko has regained his freedom.

What is even more interesting is the fact that he has chosen to preach the word of God.

“Richard Nyarko was sentenced to 35yrs in prison in 1994. He is the first prisoner I interviewed at Nsawam Medium Security Prison.

“His appeal at the High court was rejected twice. On his third attempt at the Appeals court, one of the judges who had listened to my interview with him was instrumental in convincing the other judges to reduce his sentence by 10yrs based on the advice the Judge said Richard gave to the public in the interview.

“Richard has been released and is here this morning to say thank you to CCF. He has decided to preach the word of God. Let us all remember him in prayers as he undertakes this noble journey,” Crime Check wrote to caption a photo of Richard Nyarko.
