Abronye DC levels allegations against Ken's bodyguard

He explained that Kennedy Agyapong's bodyguard had filed a petition, making some unsubstantiated allegations against him to the CID.

The Bono Regional Chairman of the NPP stated that he was picked up by the police at 9 am and detained for close to nine hours.

"I was detained again today because Kennedy Agyapong's bodyguard brought another petition against me to the CID," read the caption on Abronye DC's video, as seen on the Onua TV TikTok page.
"I was detained from 9 am to 5 pm before they granted me bail of GH¢1 million... the new allegations against me are not different from the old ones... Kennedy Agyapong's people were at the CID," Abronye DC was heard saying in the video.

He said he was scheduled to be at the hospital on Wednesday for a routine check-up on a complication he had while on remand for his first arrest. However, the police refused to allow him to visit the hospital.
