The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin South, Reverend John Ntim Fordjour, has expressed outrage over the arrest and detention of Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC.
In a post on social media on September 9, 2025, the lawmaker accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government of practising selective justice and using state security agencies to intimidate critics.
"Kevin Taylor insulted and threatened notable people, including judges, chiefs, clergy, the president, and others, yet he was given a state security escort to court in a Land Cruiser Prado under Mahama.

"Azorka is walking free after assaulting Chairman Masawud and threatening Hon. Alexander Afenyo-Markin, our Minority Leader. Chairman Abronye, on the other hand, was arrested in a dramatic manner, remanded, and put in a Black Maria to court like a hardened criminal.
"Pro-NPP social media influencers are constantly intimidated and mishandled by the NDC government and their remote-controlled security agencies as if they're not citizens. It was Fante Comedy, Sir Obama, @adentaKumi and today Abronye.
“Selective justice breeds retribution when power changes hands. This tyranny is nauseating and will not be tolerated beyond four years. While they are at it, they must remember power changes hands and no regime is permanent,” Ntim Fordjour wrote.

Meanwhile, Kwame Baffoe Abronye has been remanded into police custody by the Accra Circuit Court.
The court denied him bail, and he is expected to reappear before the court on Friday, September 12, 2025.
Abronye was arrested by the Ghana Police Service for what it described as “offensive conduct.”
