The Parliamentary Candidate for Okaikwei Central on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Baba Sadiq is facing intense mockery on social media.
This follows him losing the Okaikwei Central seat after a re-collation of the election results in the constituency.
The incumbent Member of Parliament for Okaikwei Central, Patrick Yaw Boamah has officially been declared the winner of the constituency with 21,099 votes, defeating Baba Sadiq of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who garnered 19,368 votes.
This declaration follows a ruling by the Accra High Court, which directed the Electoral Commission (EC) to complete the collation of results for several constituencies, including Okaikwei Central, Tema Central, Ablekuma North, and Techiman South, by January 6, 2025.
After the results were declared, social media users began trolling Baba Sadiq saying he has been “dropped” a term of which became popular after musician Stonebwoy was dropped from performing at the NDC’s victory concert.
Baba Sadiq was alleged to be the reason behind Stonebwoy being dropped from the concert as the two have had a falling out.

@the_marcoli_boy – Baba Sadiq too dropped? Stonebwoy dey throw knockouts by now
@backyard_dj – My sources tell me it was Baba Sadiq who made the NDC drop Stonebwoy from the victory concert so Stonebwoy also made a few phone calls and now Baba Sadiq has been dropped. I also heard Baba Saqid is in tears and we speak.
@Abiiingha_ – The grassroots of Okailwei Central have unanimously dropped Baba Sadiq as their “MP -Elect” The grassroots are powerful indeed
@ForeverPurple17 – After cancelling Stonebwoy they canceled Baba Sadiq too
@_Fiifi_Sage – NDC Dropped Stonebwoy
EC Dropped Baba Sadiq
It’s a win-win situation
