On January 30, 2026, officers of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service stormed the private residence of Ghanaian musician and social media personality, Sam Kwabena Safo Jnr, popularly known as Showboy, to attempt to arrest him.
In a heated confrontation, Showboy filmed the officers on TikTok Live as he challenged them over whether they had a warrant to arrest him.
He eventually left his residence without being arrested while officers detained some of his associates and two vehicles.
Showboy was eventually arrested as footage of him in custody emerged online on February 3.
He was arraigned before the Adentan Circuit Court on charges of alleged blackmail and defamation against Ghanaian music executive and businessman, Davido GH.
His case was initially adjourned to February 12, but he appeared late for that court date, forcing the presiding judge to remand him into custody and adjourn the case for a further two weeks.
Below is a Twitter video of Showboy with CID officers at his residence.
