Deputy General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho, is urging the Director of the CID unit of the Ghana Police Service, COP Prosper Agblor, to immediately arrest the Northern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bugri Naabu, for accepting a bribe.
In the view of the NDC deputy chief scribe, once the NPP has admitted that their party chair has accepted a bribe, it behoves on the Police to arrest and further interrogate him (Bugri Naabu) on the matter.
The matter, he noted, should not be swept under the carpet once it has become a public interest issue.
On Tuesday, November 29, 2016, the NPP at a press conference addressed by Spokesperson for Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Mustapha Hamid, cited President John Dramani Mahama and his brother, Ibrahim Mahama, for attempting to compromise Bugri Naabu, to create division in the elephant family.
According to the party, the deal between Mr. Mahama and their party Chair was for the latter to come out and disown the presidential candidate of the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition for hating people who hail from the three regions up north.
The amount in the deal is a mouth-watering GH?3.3million in addition to a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport Utility Vehicle.
To buttress their claim, the supposed SUV with registration number GS 687 – 16 was brought to the party’s headquarters while the press conference was ongoing.
The vehicle was one out of three promised him by President John Dramani Mahama and his brother with the remaining two being a brand new V8 Toyota Land Cruiser and brand new Nissan Pick-up.
Included in the package is also a road contract worth GH?190million.
But Koku Anyidoho commenting on the issue in an interview with Kasapa FM’s Akwasi Nsiah rubbished the claims of the NPP.
“It is a disgrace for Mustapha Hamid. Bugri Naabu is not dead. He is alive and therefore must come out to make his own case. I believe it is one of those machinations the NPP is perpetrating just like they did with the Election Petition Case. If it is Mustapha Hamid that is speaking for Bugri Naabu doesn’t it means that he has sold his senior brother who has not brought out any evidence to prove his case?”
“In our law, if somebody attempts to bribe you and you receive it, it is criminal. So, is Hamid now telling us that Bugri Naabu is a criminal for accepting some bribe from somebody? Because at the end of the day those you are claiming to have given out the bribe have not come out to confirm that yes the bribery allegation is true. You don’t have any evidence to prove that but rather you Hamid admitting that Bugri Naabu has accepted a bribe. I will urge the Police CID to immediately go and arrest Bugri Naabu for accepting a bribe,” he noted.
According to him, all that the NPP is doing is to divert the attention of the public from the numerous projects the President is commissioning across the country, projects, he noted, will earn him more votes to win the December 7 presidential elections.
