Songo, Franklyn and Brown who also hosts the breakfast show programme on ETV-Ghana and, were picked up by the Nima Police on Monday on alleged drug offences.
A police investigator at the Nima Police Station, Thomas Prempeh told the presiding Judge Justice K.A. Ofori-Atta that the Attorney General’s office was yet to assign a prosecutor to the case and that details had already been passed on to the High Court.
