He was granted bail after appearing before an Accra High Court following a legal battle that had attracted widespread attention across Ghana's entertainment and social media community.

He had been arrested on May 7, 2026, after dancehall artist Stonebwoy reportedly filed a complaint against him over alleged false publication and offensive conduct.

According to the prosecution, Webkid used his X account to share content described as false, misleading, and capable of causing fear and panic, with charges brought under Section 76 of the Electronic Communications Act, 2008.

His charges later increased from four to six counts as investigations continued.

During the bail hearing, Shatta Wale made a personal appearance at the Accra High Court to show support and solidarity for his fan.

The court subsequently granted Webkid a GHC 100,000 bail, ending his period in custody and paving the way for an emotional reunion with his family.

The X video of Shatta Wale leaving the Accra High Court after attending Webkid’s bail hearing is below.

Members file lawsuit against Kristo Asafo mission

According to an earlier report by YEN.com.gh, two members of the Kristo Asafo Mission of Ghana filed a lawsuit against the church and four individuals over the leadership succession following the death of founder Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka.

The church leader died on September 11, 2025, leaving the position vacant and triggering a dispute over who should succeed him.

The plaintiffs, Kweku Agyenim Boateng and Seth Appiah Richard Brown, are seeking several declarations and court orders on the interpretation of the Kristo Asafo Mission's constitution regarding the church's succession process.
