Salomey Baffoe, a nurse linked to the “Ghana Jollof” TikTok case, has been finally granted bail by the Adenta Circuit Court after her appearance on Monday, October 5, 2026.
Reports suggest Salomey Baffoe’s bail comes with two sureties, who must be civil servants earning a minimum monthly salary of GH¢3,000.
She is also expected to report to the Hansua Techiman Police Station every two weeks.
Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah disclosed that processes to secure the bail had already been initiated and expressed hope that they would be completed soon.
Speaking to the media after the court proceedings, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah stated, “She has finally been granted bail by the court. She was granted bail in the sum of GH¢100,000 with two sureties, and the sureties should be civil servants who earn no less than GH¢3,000.
“The processes leading to the consummation of the bail have been triggered. We hope to finalise it, and then she can be totally free to reunite with her children and family in Hansua Techiman,” he said.
Some days ago, the case involving senior nursing officer Salomey Awiti Baffoe, who was arrested on an abetment of crime charge in connection with the alleged publication and circulation of false news on social media in connection with the Ghana Jollof TikTok account, was adjourned again.
Salomey Baffoe’s case has now been adjourned to October 5, 2026, after the court did not sit due to the Association of Judges and Magistrates Conference, which has been scheduled for September 30, 2026, to October 4, 2026.
Speaking to the media after the adjournment on September 30, 2026, a member of Salomey Baffoe’s legal team, Enoch Afoakwa, stated, “I’m extremely disappointed because in fixing the date for hearing today, the court ought to have known that the Association of Judges and Magistrates will be having a conference from today through the weekend and that Salomey will have to be in custody until Monday, 5th October, when the court returns to sit after the Conference of Judges and Magistrates has ended.
“This is a sad situation that the liberty of an accused person cannot be decided because the Association of Judges and Magistrates is in a conference. It is very sad,” he said.
“So, the 4-year-old child, the 9-year-old child, and the 15-year-old boy [of Salomey] will be unable to see their mother until Monday, when the court makes a determination, because from today to Sunday, the Association of Judges and Magistrates are having a conference. Let’s pray for Mother Ghana,” he added.
The development follows the arrest of Salomey, who was reportedly arrested during a midnight operation at her residence in Hansua.
The incident reportedly occurred between 11 p.m. and midnight on Sunday, September 13, 2026.
According to Salomey’s brother, who was present, three individuals, comprising two men and a woman, arrived at the residence at about 11:30 p.m. dressed in black uniforms, believed to be from National Security.
The family described the allegation as a case of mistaken identity and insists that Salomey has no association with the anonymous account.
