McBrown speaks on freeing inmates

However, this year, she did not plan on throwing a lavish birthday party but wanted to decongest prisons across the country.

"Before my birthday every year, there is a feeling. It is natural. I pray about it. I save some money along the year for things like that. So this year I was supposed to release a pregnant woman from the prisons in Kumasi. By the time I was ready, a church had done that."

To make that happen, she said she spoke to Ibrahim, the CEO and presenter of Crime Check TV, who informed her that a church had already paid for the fine of the pregnant woman.

Determined to achieve her goal of freeing prisoners, the Onua Showtime host said that she discussed with Mr Ibrahim that instead of releasing one person, they should do something remarkable to celebrate her 47th birthday, which was freeing 47 inmates.

In the same interview, she said that the 47 inmates they released had fines of less than GH¢5000 because that was what she could afford.
