His allegations come on the back of claims by the NPP that Ibrahim Mahama, brother of President John Dramani Mahama tried bribing the NPP northern regional chairman to “tarnish Nana Addo as anti-Northern.”
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.
Reacting to the news, Dr Nduom said: “I cannot state whether that happened or not in the NPP but what I and the PPP do know is that we (PPP) have some six constituencies where we are sure of victory at the parliamentary level, but NDC leaders are calling them to come for cars and money, promising them that when the NDC wins, those parliamentary candidates would be made DCEs and MCEs.”
“With just a week to the December polls, the NDC leaders are telling those PPP parliamentary candidates to publicly announce that they are no longer contesting and that they had quit following the PPP and Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom. This is really happening; they are not allegations but we have told our parliamentary candidates that they also deserve to go to parliament and so they shouldn’t fall for the NDC’s dubious agenda,” he told Accra FM.
Bugri Naabu must be arrested - NDC
Koku Anyidoho, Deputy General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has toldPulse.com.gh that 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.
