The Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has detailed his rearrest on October 8, 2025.
He alleged that the second arrest was orchestrated by the bodyguard of NPP flagbearer hopeful, Kennedy Agyapong, who had reportedly petitioned the Criminal Investigations Department (CID).
Detailing his ordeal on his Ohia TV show on October 8, 2025, Abronye said, “I went to the police station as usual, per the court order, and I was told to write my charge statement.
“In less than 20 minutes, I wrote it and was waiting for them to release me. But I saw some police officers come to arrest me again for the same offence that I had earlier been remanded for.”
He continued, “This time, it was Seth Sewornu who was the complainant. The day I went to the police headquarters and got remanded, Hon Kennedy Agyapong’s bodyguard brought a petition to Seth Sewornu.
“He came to greet me because he knows me. Today, the same bodyguard who brought the petition that I used my platform to insult Kennedy Agyapong has brought another petition, claiming I have used the platform to insult Seth Sewornu. So, today’s charges, Kennedy Agyapong’s bodyguard is behind them.”
Abronye further disclosed that he was detained from 9:00 A.M. until 5:30 P.M. before being granted bail.
“They detained me from morning, around 9 A.M., till 5:30 P.M. in the evening before I was granted bail of ₵1 million,” he recounted.
He added that Yaw Adjei Sarkodie and Moses Abbor stood surety for his bail, alongside Poyoo, a former member of the Security Operations Unit at the Jubilee House.
Abronye was granted bail of GH¢1 million with two sureties after his arrest on Wednesday, 8 October 2025, on fresh charges of publishing false news with intent to create fear and panic, and offensive conduct.
