The Northern regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Daniel Bugri Naabu says the decision to deny the Savelugu constituency organizer from picking a form to contest in the party\u2019s upcoming parliamentary primary was taken by the Savelugu constituency chairman and not him.<\/p>\n

The Savelugu constituency organizer, Mohammed Hafiz has been suspended following some issues he had with the party’s constituency chairman.<\/p>\n

He was reportedly denied access<\/strong><\/a> <\/span>while trying to\u00a0pick\u00a0the nomination forms to contest as a Member of Parliament for the area.<\/p>\n

His supporters on Wednesday\u00a0besieged the party\u2019s Northern Regional secretariat to protest the decision after which he was allowed to pick the forms.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”BahNv2QKD2M1G2Z2BkAZo7vYyAk1o9oT”]Mohammed Hafiz had accused Bugri Naabu of trying to thwart his bid to become a Member of Parliament (MP) because he [Mohammed Hafiz] did not support Bugri Naabu\u2019s bid to become the regional chairman.<\/p>\n

\u00a0But Mr. Bugri Naabu has insisted that such is not the case.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Citi News<\/strong> Bugri Naabu explained that Mohammed Hafiz was suspended because he failed to appear before the party\u2019s disciplinary committee to have issues he had with the Savelugu constituency chairman addressed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very sorry and disappointed in that boy because I am not a constituency chairman. They suspended him and brought a copy of the suspension so I invited him and the constituency chairman and I told the constituency chairman not to continue the suspension.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe constituency chairman informed me that if he appears before a disciplinary committee, they would resolve the matter amicably and the guy refused to appear.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bugri Naabu fumed that Mohammed Hafiz refusal to appear before the committee showed a sign of disrespect adding that based on that the constituency chairman said \u201che will not give him the form.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bugri Naabu said despite the directive to his secretary not to give Mr Hafiz the forms, he was angry when he returned from a journey he embarked on that his secretary had disobeyed him.<\/p>\n

He said he was angry because the directive was to compel Mr Hafiz “to appear before the disciplinary committee so that he would be cleared.\u201d<\/p>\n
