Abronye's Coup Comment Unfortunate, But Must Not Be Trivialized - Akwasi Acquah

NPP Member of Parliament(MP) for Akim Oda constituency, Alexander Akwasi Acquah, has condemned the coup allegation made by Abronye DC.

The Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC was arrested and put before an Accra Circuit Court over his claims that former President John Mahama is involved in a coup plot.

He was charged with two counts of publication of false news and offensive conduct conducive to the breach of peace.

According to the police, preliminary investigations showed that Abronye's claims against the former President, are untrue.

Meanwhile, he has been granted a bail of ¢100,000 with two sureties.

The Akim Oda MP, speaking on UTV's Adekye Nsroma programme, described the comments as "unfortunate".

"Abronye's comments are unfortunate but must not be trivialized . . . investigations must be made to find out why he made such comments. We can’t say Abronye is one of us so we won't give any importance to what he says . . . Those of us enjoying the political and media space must watch our comments because coup is not something to toy with," he admonished.
