The Police invited Bugri Naabu for questioning after he said at a NPP campaign launch in the Savelugu Constituency that the party will use "strong men" in monitoring the upcoming elections.
Speaking to Pulse Ghana, DCOP Yeboah said: “For now we have to liaise with the Attorney General for advice, whether to go on, which court to go or if they would do the prosecution themselves because that is the law”.
At the campaign launch earlier this month, Naabu was quoted as telling his supporters to look out for thieves from the ruling NDC.
“Members of Kukurudu, my brothers and sisters greetings to you all for the massive turnout; this means that the election is won already but what I have to tell you is that you know the NDC, they know how to steal.

They stole in 2008 and snatched it from us in 2012. So I beg you my elders what I have for the youth is that this year’s election if care is not taken they will steal again.”

“So on December 7, get some young and strong men about 40 to guard the box and if the thieves come to snatch away the boxes break their legs. You were witnesses to the Supreme Court ruling, would you allow them to steal again?
"If they steal again we are dead so this one is do-or-die. Don't agree! If they are not afraid of guns and cutlass we are also not afraid,” he said.
DCOP Yeboah noted that the docket was not ready because Naabu reported on a weekend which meant they could not complete the processes of preparing the docket.
