The controversial media personality visited Ghana in July after several years abroad.
He had stayed away after a High Court Judge, Justice Kyei-Baffour, issued a bench warrant for his arrest in 2021 after finding him guilty of contempt. Taylor was accused of making disparaging remarks against the Justice in 2020.
He reportedly claimed that then-President Nana Akufo-Addo appointed him to the court to favour the NPP in a case involving the National Communications Authority (NCA).
The NDC-aligned political commentator stayed away from the country until Tuesday, July 22, 2025, when the Supreme Court quashed the bench warrant for being against the rules of natural justice.
After the warrant was quashed, he started making public appearances on radio and television in which he continued his fiery and bombastic commentary against the NPP.
Kevin Taylor announced publicly that he was visiting Kumasi, the stronghold of the NPP, even though some residents had warned him not to set foot there.
He ended up visiting Tamale, the Northern Regional capital, to meet with Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama.
