Mustapha Abdul Hamid met him and took him to meet then candidate Akufo-Addo behind the Odo Rise building at Circle, Accra.
“President Akufo-Addo has been a very good person to me because when I was about running for the general secretary slot of the PNC for the first time, he gave me US$2,000”, Mr Mornah said.
He added that Akufo-Addo wished him well and didn’t even count the money he was giving him.
“Young man, I’m told you’re going to run for general secretary. I wish you all the best…. Akufo-Addo then pulled money. He didn’t count. It was US$2,000” Bernard Mornah said.
Bernard Mornah revealed right after taking the money he abandoned his Neoplan station and opted to rent a car.
He won the election with a landslide, beating Dr. Sumtim Togiba to the position and Santua Niagah. He retained the position in 2012.
In 2015 he was elected National Chairman of the PNC making him the youngest National Chairman just like he was the youngest General Secretary when he won the position in 2007.
