The New Patriotic Party has officially dissociated itself from the comments made by their Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, commonly known as Abronye DC, against Archbishop Duncan-Williams on Ohia TV.
Abronye on live TV launched a scathing attack on Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, accusing him of protecting members of the LGBTQI+ community.
In the viral video, Abronye further fired shots at the Archbishop using offensive and unprintable language, including shockingly calling him a “useless man” and labelling him a criminal.
On June 30, 2025, the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party, Justin Frimpong Kodua, condemned remarks made by Abronye DC and distanced the NPP from his remarks.
The NPP statement read, “The attention of the National Secretariat of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has been drawn to public commentary made by the Bono Regional Chairman of the Party, Mr. Kwame Baffoe, alias Abronye DC, in which he made some unfortunate and unprovoked remarks about the internationally revered Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams during a recent media engagement.
“The party unequivocally distance itself from those comments, and emphasises that they do not reflect the party’s values, beliefs, or official position. The New Patriotic Party holds religious leadership in high regard and recognises the immense contributions of Archbishop Duncan-Williams and the broader religious community to national development, peace, and moral guidance,” portions of the statement read.
The statement added, “While the NPP, as a democratic and inclusive political tradition, upholds the freedom of expression of its members, we also expect such freedom to be exercised with utmost responsibility, respect, and decorum, especially when addressing revered leaders of faith whose influence transcends partisan boundaries”.
“We urge the general public, especially the Christian community, to treat Mr Baffoe’s personal views as entirely his own and not attributable to the New Patriotic Party.”
It concluded, “The party remains committed to fostering respectful engagement across all sectors of Ghanaian society and will continue to work in partnership with religious institutions for the collective advancement of our country.”
Meanwhile, Abronye DC, some weeks ago, was referred to the NPP’s disciplinary committee for breaching the party directive to refrain from making unguarded public comments.
However, Abronye DC has boldly stated he will not appear before any Kangaroo disciplinary committee.
