NPP Northern Regional Chairman, Bugri Naabu and Gender Minster, Otiko Djaba

NPP Council to meet over Otiko, Naabu brouhaha
The National Council of the governing New
Patriotic Party (NPP), will hold a crucial meeting
tomorrow [Wednesday], over the row between two of
the party’s party bigwigs, Otiko Afisa Djaba and
Bugri Naabu.

The two have been bickering in the past few days,
exchanging abusive words on various media
platforms in what many have described as a serious
blot on the government’s image.

The Minister for Gender, Children and Social
Protection, Otiko Afisa Djaba in a media
engagement last week, accused the NPP Northern
Regional Chairman, Bugri Naabu, of receiving goats
and cows from individuals with the promise of
securing appointments in public office for them.

Mr. Naabu in a subsequent media interview caused a
stir when he reportedly suggested that Otiko Djaba
was involved in the murder of the former NPP Upper
East Regional Chairman, Adams Mahama.

A Deputy General Secretary of the NPP, Nana Obiri
Boahen, told Citi News the development was
‘unfortunate’.

He said, “it has been decided that the party
will be meeting tomorrow [Wednesday] to discuss
that particular issue because it is very much
important and particular to us. Tomorrow at 7:00
pm we are meeting.”

He said tentatively, the Council has not invited
the two individuals at the centre of the issue to
the meeting.

The National Council is the second highest
decision-making body in the party after Congress.
