The spokesperson for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Constituency Youth Organizers in the Northern Region, Mutaru Fatau, has asked Ghanaians to accept Daniel Bugri Naabu\u2019s explanation over his attempt to set up a committee to investigate party delegates who failed to vote for Nana Akufo-Addo.<\/span><\/p>\n

He described the decision as \u201ca persuasive call” but asked Ghanaians to accept the explanation and move on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bugri Naabu, the Northern Regional chairman of the NPP on Friday set up a three-member committee\u00a0to investigate and fish out<\/strong><\/span><\/a> some party delegates\u2019 who refused to vote for two-time presidential candidate of the NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo during the super delegates\u2019 congress.<\/p>\n

He threatened to deal with the culprits who failed to obey his directive.<\/p>\n

Bugri Naabu, who was subsequently criticized for his decision issued a statement clarifying that his threats were a mere joke.<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”oa4TlcTjcb6GZ0UonusmsiNKG5fTtOmA”]The office of NPP presidential hopeful, Alan Kyeremanten has since\u00a0called for his suspension.<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking on Eyewitness News<\/strong>, Mutaru Fatau wondered why Bugri Naabu was criticized for his decision saying, \u201cChairman Bugri Naabu is not an angel, he is a human being like all of us. He has made a statement and he has come to retract the statement. Let us leave it there and move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said Naabu\u2019s decision was influenced by party members who were supporting Akufo-Addo\u2019s candidature.<\/p>\n

According to him, events that unfolded at the party\u2019s congress showed that the time had come for Nana Akufo-Addo to lead the party to victory in 2016.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is Nana Addo\u2019s time and that is what people at the grassroots levels are saying. We are speaking the voice of the people. Those who went there on the Super delegate\u2019s congress did not go there on their own decision, they went there because they listened to people at the grassroots level.\u201d<\/p>\n

Out of 741 ballots cast during the Super Delgates\u2019 Congress, Nana Akufo-Addo polled 598 votes<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>representing 81.28 percent of total votes cast while his closest contender, Alan Kyerematen obtained 59 votes representing 8.01 percent.<\/p>\n
