Kwaw Kese
Rapper, Kwaw Kese has spoken out against the Ghana Police Service after he was stopped and searched while using the Spintex Road on Thursday, June 5, 2025.
In a video posted on Instagram, the musician looked upset as he described the incident. He said police officers pulled him over and searched his car for about 30 minutes, looking for weed or illegal drugs.
“You stopped me and searched inside my car hoping to find something to arrest me with. What kind of nonsense is that?” he said in the video.
Kwaw Kese said the search was done in public view and made him feel embarrassed. He believes the officers targeted him because of his past.
In 2014, he was arrested in Kumasi for smoking weed in public. He was jailed for one day and fined GH¢1,200.
Now, he says he has learned from that incident and would never carry drugs, especially in public.
“Why would I disgrace myself by carrying something illegal? Your plan to shame me didn’t work,” he added.
The police are yet to respond to his claims.
