Ghanaian musician Kwaw Kese, whose real name is Emmanuel Kofi Botwe has called out the Ghana Police Service over an incident that reportedly happened on Thursday, June 5, 2025.
In a video shared on his Instagram page, the Swedru Agona hitmaker recounted the encounter in a video, looking extremely disturbed while driving his vehicle.
Kwaw Kese claimed that he was stopped near Spintex Road by police officers who then searched his vehicle thoroughly for around half an hour, expecting to see weed or cannabis and arrest him.
He claimed that after police spotted him on the road, the officers thoroughly inspected his car because they believed he was in possession of illicit drugs.
“Ghana Police, you stopped me at Spintex Road for about 30 minutes. You searched me by the roadside and searched inside my car looking for hard substances to fabricate a case against me,” he lamented.
Kwaw Kese voiced his disapproval over the matter and questioned the police’ justification for conducting such a search, insisting that they were hoping to implicate him for possessing weed.
The rapper, who just observed his late mother Yaa Serwaa’s funeral and burial, vowed never to carry illegal drugs, especially in public where he may be caught at any time.
“How can the Ghana Police stop and search me by the roadside in full view of passersby? You were praising me while simultaneously searching through my clothes in public. Why would I carry an illegal substance on myself and allow you to disgrace and arrest me on the street? What kind of nonsense is that? You just see me and stop me to search for something unlawful. Your evil schemes have failed,” he added.
