The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has announced plans to hold a mass demonstration on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, to protest what it describes as harassment of its members by the Ghana Police Service.

The announcement was made by the National Youth Organiser, Salam Mustapha, in a Facebook post on Friday, September 12.

The demonstration follows the recent remand of the NPP’s Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, by an Accra Circuit Court. Abronye DC was arrested on Monday, September 8, for alleged “offensive conduct conducive to the breach of public peace” and has been ordered to remain in police custody for two weeks while investigations continue.

In his post, Salam Mustapha stated: “Tuesday, 23rd September, the National Youth Wing will organise a demo against state-sponsored police harassment. From Obra Spot to Police Headquarters. 6 a.m. sharp!”

The youth wing says the protest aims to mobilize a massive turnout of supporters to resist what it views as politically motivated intimidation by state institutions.

Meanwhile, Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi) is also facing investigations over allegations of fraud, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering.

Several other party members have reportedly been arrested in separate cases, which the NPP leadership claims is part of a broader pattern of persecution.
