The Ghana Police Service has confirmed the arrest of New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman for the Bono Region, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, for ‘offensive conduct conducive to the breach of public peace.’
The police noted in a statement issued late Monday that Mr. Baffoe was taken into custody earlier in the day and is currently being held.
According to the police authorities, the NPP Chairman is expected to be arraigned before the court in the coming days.
While the police did not provide full details of the specific conduct that led to the arrest, the move comes amid heightened public attention surrounding the outspoken Bono Regional NPP Chairman.
Abronye recently made headlines after submitting formal requests for political asylum in eight countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada, Spain, Germany, and Côte d’Ivoire.
In his petition, he alleged increasing political persecution and threats to his life, accusing the current government of abusing state security agencies for political purposes.
Police reportedly searched the residence of former NPP Youth Organizer Moses Abor on Sunday as part of inquiries linked to Abronye, but he was not found. Enditem
