The Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has been granted bail by the court in the sum of GH¢50,000 with one surety, without justification.
His lead counsel, Daniel Martey Addo, confirmed the bail decision, noting that Abronye’s deteriorating health condition made the ruling a relief for both the legal team and his family. Efforts are currently underway to meet the bail requirements and secure his immediate release.
Abronye DC was arrested on September 8, 2025, on a charge of offensive conduct conducive to a breach of public peace.
According to the police, the arrest was linked to comments he made publicly, which included allegations against the Inspector General of Police (IGP) and the ruling party. Authorities described the remarks as potentially inflammatory.
In the days leading up to his arrest, Abronye submitted applications for political asylum to eight countries — Côte d’Ivoire, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada, Spain, and Germany.
In those requests, he cited persistent political persecution, threats to his life, and alleged misuse of state security powers under the current government.
The case continues to generate national attention as debates intensify over the limits of free speech, political accountability, and the protection of opposition voices in Ghana’s democracy.
