Minority Leader calls for bail for Abronye DC following CID arrest
The Minority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has called on the Ghana Police Service to grant bail to the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, also known as Abronye DC.
Abronye DC was arrested by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) on Monday, April 13, 2026, over allegations of offensive conduct, false publication, and conduct likely to cause a breach of the peace. He is also being questioned over alleged threats directed at a judge at the Adenta Circuit Court.
In a Facebook post, Afenyo-Markin urged the police to grant the NPP official bail, stating that it would be unfair to detain him while investigations continue.
“Ghana Police Service, please release Abronye on bail. It will be unfair to detain him,” he said.
He also called on the police to exercise their discretion in line with Article 296 of the 1992 Constitution.
This is the second time Abronye DC has been arrested in less than a year, following a similar incident in September 2025 on charges of offensive conduct.
Reports indicate that his legal representatives have begun the process of applying for police inquiry bail.
The Ghana Police Service has not yet responded to the Minority Leader’s appeal or indicated when Abronye DC will be arraigned before court.
