Kwame Baffoe aka Abronye DC, the Bono Regional Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), has stated that despite his detention for suggesting that former President John Mahama was organizing a coup, he will continue to speak his opinion.
“No amount of populist jail will injunct me from screaming out or saying my views,” he remarked for the first time since his detention and subsequent bail.
He also expressed some reservations about the Inspector General of Police.
“I will come out with certain personal difficulties I have with the IGP in the coming days,” he told the reporters.
The Accra Regional Command detained Abronye DC on Tuesday after he accepted their offer to investigate the claims.
He was then charged with fake news dissemination and offensive conduct conducive to a breach of the peace.
Mr. Baffoe has pled not guilty to all of the accusations leveled against him.
According to the police, a preliminary inquiry found that his allegations against the former NDC flagbearer are false and likely to cause a breach of the peace.
Mr. Baffoe is claimed to have stated that Mr. Mahama met with Al-Qaeda extremists to discuss ways to destabilize the ruling party.
He said that Mr. Mahama approached the organisation in a bid to help him become president again.
The NPP communicator made these allegations on Accra based Hot 93.9 FM, while responding to the arrest of #FixTheCountry convener, Oliver Mawuse Barker-Vormawor.
