Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye, has been remanded into police custody and is scheduled to reappear in court on Friday, September 12.
The Ghana Police Service confirmed his arrest on Monday, September 8, citing “offensive conduct conducive to the breach of public peace.” He was taken into custody the same day and remains in detention.
Although the police have not provided full details of the alleged conduct, the case has drawn significant national attention due to Abronye’s high political profile.
Abronye, who currently serves as the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), is widely known for his outspoken political commentary. His arrest comes shortly after he filed for political asylum in eight countries the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada, Spain, Germany, and Côte d’Ivoire, alleging political persecution and threats to his life. He accused the government of misusing state security agencies for political purposes.
As part of investigations, police reportedly searched the residence of former NPP Youth Organiser Moses Abor on Sunday, but Abronye was not located there.
The case will continue on Friday as the court hears the charges and decides on the next steps.
