The Adenta Circuit Court has granted bail to Salomey Awiti Baffoe, alleged accomplice of controversial TikToker Ghana Jollof, in the sum of GH¢100,000.
The court ordered two sureties, both to be civil servants earning not less than GH¢3,000 a month. Salomey, 40, was arrested on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at her home at Hansua, near Techiman in the Bono East Region.
Her arrest sparked public concern following reports that three persons claiming to be National Security operatives picked her up around 11:30 p.m. and took her away.
According to her family, her whereabouts were initially unknown, with the Bono East Regional Police Command and Regional National Security said to have no record of the operation at the time.
The mother of three appeared in court on Monday, represented by the MP for Manhyia South, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, who described the bail decision as a welcome development. The case has been adjourned.
Meanwhile Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah has affirmed that he will continue to defend Mrs Awiti Bafoh despite what he describes as the personal challenges and frustrations he has faced in the course of the case.
Reflecting on the case in a Facebook post, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah said the matter had become “deeply personal” to him, not only because Ms Bafoh was his client but also because defending her had come with difficulties of his own.
He said the experience over the past few weeks had tested his resolve but had not weakened his commitment to her defence.
“The past few weeks have tested my resolve. But through it all, I have remained guided by one conviction: a lawyer must never be afraid to stand for a client’s rights simply because doing so becomes difficult or uncomfortable,” he said.
Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah said the bail ruling was an important step but stressed that his responsibility as counsel remained unchanged. “
Whatever the personal cost, I will not abandon my duty as a lawyer. Justice must be allowed to take its course,” he said, adding that his focus would now remain on the case and ensuring that Ms Bafoh receives due process and proper representation.
