Gemann, now G-Love Graceful even in prison, forty-one year old Gemann, currently serving a life sentence at Nsawam prison is hopeful that he may get out of prison, a free man, someday soon.
Gemann, who now prefers to be called G-Love (his real name, Nana Kwasi Agyeman) was condemned to death upon conviction for murder by shooting a taxi driver in 1995.
In a no-holds-barred interview on Kwaku-One-On-One, which is slated to be shown on GTV, this Sunday, Gemann told his host ?I will have to serve, but I know that I have crossed the Red Sea and to get to Jordan will not be as difficult?.
Gemann appeared not to have lost hope of gaining his freedom one day. He said ?While on death row, some of my prison mates went home and that was a great hope to know that somebody could go home from death row so you?re always waiting and anticipating that something positive will happen and you will come out?.
At the end of the interview, Kwaku Sakyi-Addo, the host, bid Gemann farewell by saying: ?I hope that one day I?ll see you outside?. Gemann replied, ?Hopefully hopefully very soon.?
Forty-one year old Gemann?s hopes may be well grounded. After spending seven years on death row, he earned a Presidential reprieve in 2002 and his sentence reduced to life imprisonment. ?Life is better than death? he said. ?I was sentence to death but now, by the grace of God, I have passed from death to life?.
Born-again Gemann said that he would be a evangelist if he?s released but indicated in the interview that ?prison will always be with me until I die.? He said he would love to carry out most of his evangelization by visiting prisons.
Gemann, whose career in showbiz was marked by flamboyance and was a point of attraction for many ladies revealed to Kwaku that one of the things he misses most in prison was someone to say to him, ?I love you?. He explained that he didn?t mean physical intercourse, but for someone to show some appreciation for him.
Gemann told obviously surprised Kwaku Sakyi-Addo that his pal, Jagger Pee, with whom he went to prison but was later released, has never visited him. ?I?ve had a lot of fair weather friends, but now I?ve found a new friend in Christ?.
He said he had a wife in Holland called Doris, with whom he shares a thirteen year old daughter called Tremina.
?Do you consider yourself still married?? Kwaku Sakyi-Addo asked. ?No, you do not consider yourself married when you have been sentenced to death. Most people on death row that I know, lost their wives after one year. She was a good woman and I pray for her?.
In answer to a question whether he thinks he?ll go to heaven when he dies. Gemann replied ?I?ll go to heaven because Jesus Christ has paid for all my sins?.
