Sheik Mustapha Hamid, the spokesperson of the Nana Addo, alleged at a press conference on Tuesday that Ibrahim Mahama offered Bugri an amount of 500,000 Ghana cedis and a V8 vehicle to ensure that Nana Addo is tagged as anti-Northern.
“The president’s brother led the discussion. He said Bugri was supposed to resign from the NPP, and damage Akufo-Addo beyond electability. According to the president, Bugri should paint Akufo-Addo as an anti-Northern person who could never be trusted to advance the course of the people of the North. He was supposed to tell the world that it was Nana Akufo-Addo who got him to turn against Afoko and that he was now wiser...Bugri was supposed to say Akufo-Addo was running a one-man show in the NPP. He was supposed to label Akufo-Addo as a dictator,” Mustapha added.

Many have since questioned why Bugri Naabu failed to address the press conference himself and rather had allowed Mustapha Hamid to do so.

Others have also asked the northern regional Chair to provide audio recording or photos of the said meeting to support his case.
But speaking on Rainbow Radio, Mustapha Hamid said ‘’there is nobody on earth who can have a meeting with the president and record him. I am saying that on authority. It won’t happen. It is impossible…You cannot record the president and it was not possible for Bugri Naabu to have recorded the president.’’

Koku Anyidoho, Deputy General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has toldPulse.com.ghthat the police must arrest the Northern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Daniel Bugri Naabu for indicating that he has accepted a bribe.
"Certainly, the NDC has not bribed Bugri Naabu. There is no evidence to that effect. If Bugri Naabu has accepted something from somewhere and has admitted that he is bribable and so accepted some bribe from somebody, let the police pick him up.”
“Under Ghana’s laws, acceptance of bribe is a crime...Bugri Naabu is a criminal and Mustapha Hamid is an accomplice, and they are the ones who are destroying the image of Northerners and not the NDC," Mr Anyidoho said.
