New Patriotic Party officials and supporters gathered at the Accra Circuit Court on Friday, September 12, seeking the release of Bono Regional Chairman Kwame Baffoe. Police detained Baffoe on Monday, September 8, 2025, following allegations that he insulted Inspector General Christian Tetteh Yohunu. The NPP condemned what party leaders called the weaponization of state security against political opponents by the Mahama administration. Party representatives warned citizens against what they termed emerging tyranny. Hundreds of party members chanted slogans and displayed placards outside the courthouse during the hearing.

The court proceedings concluded with Abronye being remanded into custody despite the large demonstration of support. Security officers transported him away in a Black Maria vehicle under substantial police protection. Defense attorneys announced their intention to appeal the court's decision in subsequent legal proceedings. The NPP leadership pledged continued resistance against what they characterize as systematic attempts to silence opposition voices. Party officials view these actions as deliberate efforts to undermine their organization before the 2026 electoral campaign begins.
