Dennis Miracles Aboagye calls for release of Efya Royal, questions police detention over video

Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the aspiring National Communications Director for the New Patriotic Party, has called for the release of social media personality Efya Royal, who he claims has been detained by the Ghana Police Service after sharing a video online. In a Facebook post, Aboagye questioned the legal grounds for Efya's arrest and detention, alleging that the laws governing the sharing of such content are being applied unfairly.

He emphasized that citizens should not be subjected to the selective application of the law and questioned why Efya remains in police custody for merely sharing a video. Aboagye urged the Police Service to release Efya Royal, stating that if there are concerns about the video's content, authorities should target the original content creator.

He also appealed for the law to be applied uniformly if sharing a video of another person is deemed an offense. Aboagye stated that lawyers representing Efya Royal were making their way to the Police Headquarters, expressing hope that she would be released by the end of the day.
