Media personality and political activist popularly known as A Plus, has taunted the Bono Regional Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe popularly known as Abronye DC, for allowing himself to be detained by police.
According to him in a Facebook LIVE video published on February 20, 2022, A Plus rain insults on Abronye accusing him of disgracing himself by peddling childish untruths that landed him in jail.
“You keep insulting John Mahama for no reason, now you have been detained overnight. Your party is in government but you have been locked up for a night.
“You continue to lie about me but it is you that have been locked up. I have been in political activism for 25 years without arrest let alone detention”, he said.
“I started out under Rawlings era, through to Kufuor, Mills, Mahama and Akufo-Addo but I have never been locked. You have no power in this country, you have been locked up,” A Plus added amid jeers.
Meanwhile, after Abronye’s detention by the Police and released on bail, he was granted interview on a media platform in which he insulted A Plus and accused him of corruption.
“A Plus, I am not competing with you on anything: I am more intelligent than you are, I am better educated than you, I have better certificates than you, you sit exams and you fail (insults)”, Abronye said.
“After you are done smoking your ‘wee’, write a petition that I said you were taking fuel from the Castle and I stopped you,” he added.
A Plus has however recently petitioned Police CID to investigate in a case in which Abronye DC is alleging that former President, John Dramani Mahama, is involved in the death of a police officer investigating a graft case involving him Mahama.
The two have since been engaging in a media fight after Abronye was charged and detained by police for publishing false news about former President John Dramani Mahama.
