KOKA granted bail after almost a week behind bars

Ghanaian
entertainment
analyst
Kwaku
Osei
Korankye
Asiedu,
also
known
as
KOKA,
has
been
granted
bail.

After
nearly
a
week
in
detention,
an
Accra
Circuit
Court
granted
KOKA
GH?
2000
bail
with
one
surety.

Following
his
release,
the
entertainment
critic
was
seen
in
a
video
leaving
the
courthouse
with
gospel
musician
Ohemaa
Mercy.

Ghana
Police
detained
KOKA
after
Ohemaa
Mercy
submitted
a
report
about
purported
threats
against
her
life.

He
had
defied
several
summonses
from
the
police
to
appear
at
their
station
for
questioning.

The
controversial
figure
earlier
appeared
in
court
on
September
20,
2024,
for
his
initial
hearing,
pleading
not
guilty
to
the
allegations
of
threatening
harm.

Before
his
arrest,
the
entertainment
commentator,
who
was
previously
an
associate
of
Ohemaa
Mercy,
resorted
to
social
media
to
criticize
her
and
make
various
accusations.

He
said
the
gospel
singer
owed
him
GH?
8500
and
planned
to
collect
it
back
after
terminating
connections
with
her.

He
also
accused
Joy
News
host
Becky
of
being
engaged
in
the
police
case.

In
an
Instagram
post,
the
gospel
singer
and
her
team
claimed
credit
for
the
arrest
and
refuted
KOKA’s
assertions
that
Joy
News
host
Becky
was
involved
in
his
detention.
