After reports went blazing on social media on Wednesday, March 14, 2024, that Albert Hyde, popularly known as Bongo Ideas, had been arrested by the police. According to a statement shared by blogger, Ronnie Is Everywhere, Bongo Ideas had reportedly been picked up at about 2:00 am in the night.

The narrator who claimed to be a relative of Bongo Ideas indicated that the men who picked him up wore uniforms suggesting that they were police officers. He added that even though the men refused to show them where they were taking Bongo to, the family had tried checking across nearby police stations but had not been successful in locating him. A controversial figure on social media for some of the opinions he shares, the news of Bongo Ideas’ arrests seemed to have excited a section of online users. To make matters worse the Ghana Police came out with a publication that they had no hand in the arrest of the “critic” Bongo Ideas in a statement that read;

“The attention of the Ghana Police Service has been drawn to Social Media reports that one Albert Nat Hyde a.k.a. BongoIdeas has been arrested by the Police. The Ghana Police Service has not arrested the said individual. The Police has contacted a relative who has confirmed that BongoIdeas is at home,” 

Per this statement by the Ghana Police Service it was very clear that the suspected persons were not from Ghana Police and that it had everything to do with a reply Bongo Ideas gave the president of Ghana, His excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo when the first lady of the Republic of Ghana was celebrating Her birthday on X.

As we await the final investigation from Ghana Police on who the suspects may be, this is what Bogo Ideas came to explain to the general public on His bad treatment netted at Him by some unknown individuals who claimed to be from the Ghana Police.
