Otiko Djaba over the weekend alleged that Bugri Naabu had collected monies, goats, cows and other things from people and promised them jobs with the School Feeding programme.

She stated that "it is not the mandate of the regional chairman to decide who is a caterer [to the School Feeding programme]."

Her comments follow an altercation she had with Bugri Naabu on Friday in Tamale after the NPP National Women's Organiser said she went to meet women organisers of the party in the Northern region.

But Bugri Naabu in an interview on Accra-based Radio XYZ in response to Otiko Djaba’s allegation said he will drag the gender minister to court for her to provide evidence.

Mr Naabu explained he only stormed the meeting because "the women wanted to beat her, she calls them to Accra and when they arrive she says she has cancelled the meeting and a lot of the women complain. Even where to sleep [while they are in Accra] becomes a problem, transportation back becomes a problem, so they’ve meant her. And I thought the best thing I should do was to come in and tell them to be patient and forget about what she was doing and tell her [Otiko] that what she was doing was illegal."

He added that "she [Otiko] started insulting me that I’ve taken bribe, I’ve taken goat, guinea fowl, and cow. I’m coming to find out from her, she should show me the person who gave me money or who I asked for money from. The person who gave me a cow or I asked for a cow from and the person who gave me a goat if I asked for it, I need evidence. If she has no evidence, I’m putting her before court."
