Abronye is the Bono Regional Chairman of the NPP
Kwame Baffoe, alias Abronye, the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), is currently being questioned by officials at the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) office at Kawukudi, in Accra, according to Henry Nana Boakye, the NPP’s National Organiser, who is popularly known as Nana B.
In a Facebook update on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, Nana B disclosed that he, along with several party executives, accompanied Abronye to the NIB office earlier in the day, following the invitation extended to him by the NIB.
Abronye, according to Nana B, is engaging with NIB officers and is being supported by his legal team, comprising Agyei Baffour Awuah and Enoch Afoakwa.
“This morning, together with some party executives, we accompanied Kwame Baffoe Abronye, the Bono Regional Chairman of the NPP, to the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) office at Kawukudi.
“Abronye is currently engaging with NIB officers, accompanied by his legal representatives, Lawyer Agyei Baffour Awuah and Lawyer Enoch Afoakwa,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
Nana B emphasised the party’s unwavering support for its members, stating, “The party remains committed to standing by its members at all times.”
The NIB invited Abronye for questioning over some comments he made in a radio interview against President John Dramani Mahama.
Speaking on Accra-based Movement TV, Abronye accused President Mahama of withholding GH¢550 million intended for dismissed appointees at the Jubilee House.
“The Akufo-Addo government budgeted GH¢550 million for these individuals to be employed. This money comes from taxpayers, yet another government cancels the appointments and allegedly transfers the funds to the Jubilee House. So, what are you doing with the GH¢550 million that was put in bullion vans and sent to the Jubilee House?
“You have revoked people’s appointments, taken their GH¢550 million, and put it in a bullion van. Meanwhile, Mahama and Okudzeto Ablakwa travel every week and have not spent more than three days in the country,” he claimed.
Following his invitation, Abronye reacted, stating that he cannot be intimidated or silenced through the use of state security agencies.
Speaking on Movement TV, the outspoken politician emphasised that he remains resolute in his position on the matter and is eagerly awaiting the scheduled meeting with the NIB.
“I cannot be intimidated by any state security agency. I am not one of those who run away from accountability. Why? Don’t I have the right to question the president on where he’s keeping that money? Is this the Ghana we are building? These people know that both spiritually and physically, they always lose a fight against me. So, is this the strategy they are resorting to? I will demolish them.
“You, the same President Mahama, when you met the labour unions, stated that state resources were criminally used. Why can’t I also drag you to the NIB for questioning? We were in this country when a party chairman urged supporters of his party to burn DRIP machines, yet the Director of Investigation did not say a word on that issue. I am to appear before the NIB on Wednesday, but if they like, I can go and sleep there on Tuesday night ahead of the meeting,” he said.
He added that “Nobody can threaten me or prevent me from asking relevant questions. Even Donald Trump was questioned after his company had a deal with Elon Musk’s company. When I appear before the NIB, I will use the word ‘hoarding’ in every paragraph. We can’t allow the government to keep that money.”
