Freedom is very expensive, never abuse it – Kwaw Kese advises fans Hiplife artiste Kwaw Kese has observed that
freedom is the most expensive thing in the world
and has therefore advised his fans not to abuse
their freedom, since they risked losing it.
‘Abodam’ told Starr Drive host Bola Ray in his
first ever media interview after he was granted
bail following his arrest in Kumasi for smoking
Indian hemp publicly that his few weeks of
incarceration in cells has made him appreciate
what it means to have one’s freedom.
“Freedom is expensive…use freedom wisely
because it’s very expensive…it’s the most
expensive thing…being locked up there is not
easy,” he told Bola Ray.
Kese was granted bail on health grounds on Tuesday
December 30, 2014 after being in police custody
for five weeks.
Before his bail, he had been on admission at the
Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) after he
took ill while in cells.
The controversial Ghanaian rapper was arrested by
the police in Kumasi on November 23, 2014.
He was in the Ashanti Regional capital to perform
at an event on one Saturday.
Kese was picked up by the police a few minutes
ahead of midnight that same day, while “cooling
off after his show” at a popular local hangout
around Nhyeaso.
According to a police account, Kwaw who was
smoking the weed with a group of friends did not
fight the arrest.
"We all know cannabis and he will not deny, he
hasn't denied" said the officer in charge of the
arrest, ASP Charles Appiah, who is the head of the
Drug Law Enforcement Unit at the Kumasi police
command.
The “King of the Streets” was first put before
court on a provisional charge of use of narcotic
drug without lawful authority. Kese returns to
Court next month.
