I’ve not been arrested; Disregard ‘mischievous’ claims – A Plus

A musician cum comedian, Kwame Asare Obeng known in the entertainment industry as Kwame A Plus, has disputed earlier reports which suggested he was arrested.

The outspoken NPP member said he was only invited by the police service for statement and not on arrest as speculated in the media.

According to the reports, Kwame A Plus was apprehended by the police for allegedly using a fake Facebook account to libelous stories against the Executive Chairman of State Enterprise Commission (SEC), Mr. Stephen Asamoah Boateng, otherwise known as Asabee.

But reacting to the news in a Facebook live video, A Plus said the news of his arrest was propagated through various NPP WhatsApp platforms by persons closer to Asabee.

He explained that Mr Asamoah Boateng insulted him (A Plus) and he responded in likewise manner. He was then invited by the police to come and respond to a case brought against him by Asabee, so he went to the CID headquarters to write his statement and after he left there, there was a false reportage that he (Kwame A Plus) had been arrested and therefore spent the night in jail.

“Asabee can’t get me arrested. I am at Marriott hotel chilling,” he said in the video.

He added: “I insulted Asabee and I will continue to insult him till he retracts his insult. You guys are cowards and conformists, none of you can behave the way I do. Kwame A Plus…I am a bad boy. I walked in and out of the police station…tomorrow 9am I will go and walk out again from the police station again.”
