'Attorney General is stepping in to ensure Abronye's release by Monday – Kpebu

Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has disclosed that the Attorney General, Dr Dominic Ayine intends to intervene to ensure that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye, is granted bail by Monday.

Speaking on TV3’s The Key Points on Saturday, September 13, 2025, Kpebu said there was no justification for keeping Abronye in custody for an entire week following the adjournment of his case.

He explained that an adjournment does not automatically require the police to hold an accused person until the next court date, stressing that the courts can sit any day once the appropriate processes are filed.

“Abronye doesn’t have to be in custody for even one week. Today, the right process can be filed, the judge can sit today, and grant Abronye bail. If we don’t speak up, it will grow and become worse,” Kpebu argued.

He further criticised the decision to keep Abronye in custody, describing it as an outdated political tactic.

“We have grown past the communist inferior tactics. I am not, for one moment, supporting the despicable comment by Abronye, but these are misdemeanours,” he stated.

Kpebu added that Attorney General Dr Dominic Ayine was already taking steps to ensure Abronye is released on bail as soon as possible.

“Dr Ayine is stepping in so that, latest by Monday, Abronye should be out. This is not what we voted you guys in to do,” he stressed.
