Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC and serving as the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, has been remanded into police custody for two weeks as investigations continue into allegations of offensive conduct and false publication.
According to reports, Abronye DC was rearrested on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, just weeks after he had earlier been granted bail in relation to the same matter. Authorities say the ongoing investigations are linked to public remarks allegedly considered false and capable of causing fear or unrest.
The case is part of a broader investigation by the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service into statements allegedly made by the outspoken politician on public platforms. Reports indicate that the allegations involve offensive conduct conducive to breaches of peace and the publication of false information.
This is not the first time Abronye DC has faced legal trouble over public comments. In previous cases, he was investigated and charged over statements authorities considered inflammatory or misleading.
The latest remand decision has triggered reactions within political circles, particularly among supporters of the New Patriotic Party, with some party figures monitoring developments closely as the legal process continues.
The case also adds to ongoing national discussions about freedom of speech, political commentary, and the limits of public expression in Ghana’s political environment. Courts in earlier proceedings involving Abronye DC stressed that freedom of speech comes with responsibility, especially when public statements may affect national security or public order.
