Said Abdulai Abu has called Sarkodie an ignorant artiste.

The spokesman for the major opposition, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), said this in reaction to Sarkodie's claim that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) solved the erratic power supply (dumsor) challenge that hit the country when the NDC was in power.

It was earlier reported that Sarkodie offered his backing on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo candidacy for a second term in office in this year’s elections.

The rapper mixed his words his new track ' Happy Days' with Kuami Eugene.

In his lyrics, he stated that the Akufo-Addo regime had solved the dumsor conundrum by providing uninterrupted power supply to the country, alongside implementation of a number of good policies that are benefitting all Ghanaians.

“We all spoke against the dumsor (erratic power supply) and the high inflation rate and so if these have been solved at the moment with Ghanaians also enjoying free SHS, then all I can say is that Nana Akufo-Addo should continue for another four years,” he sang.

Sadiq has immediately pointed out that anyone who would openly credit Akufo-Addo administration for solving dumsor is ignorant.

"It’s ignorance for anyone to suggest the Nana Addo led administration solved Dumsor. When and how did they solve Dumsor? Such ignorance can’t be allowed to fester. By all means, take your endorsement fees, but don't hoodwink your fans into believing your ignorance,"

The issue of stabilised power in the country is a touchy subject amongst the two main parties in Ghana. While the NPP says its efforts ensured the end to the frequent power outages, the NDC says it solved the challenge before leaving office in 2016.
