The New Patriotic Party (NPP) says it will hit the streets on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, to protest what it calls state-sponsored harassment of its members by the Ghana Police Service.
The announcement was made by National Youth Organiser, Salam Mustapha, in a Facebook post on Friday, September 12, following the remand of Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe (Abronye DC).
Abronye was arrested on September 8 for “offensive conduct conducive to the breach of public peace” and ordered by an Accra Circuit Court to remain in custody for two weeks while investigations continue.
Reacting to the case, Mustapha declared; “Tuesday, 23rd September, the National Youth Wing will organise a demo against the state-sponsored police harassment. From Obra Spot to police headquarters. 6 a.m. sharp!”
The party’s grievances go beyond Abronye’s case. Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi) is also under criminal investigation for alleged fraud, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering, while other affiliates have reportedly faced separate arrests.
