The NDC prior to the 2016 and 2020 General elections pursued DJ Sources with huge amounts of cash in their desperate attempts to bribe and influence him to discontinue his persistent exposure, attacks and agenda against the NDC in both Ghana and Diaspora. However, due to his strong love for the NPP, he rejected all such irresistible juicy offers; far juicier than what was offered Kelvin Taylor and A Plus, despite his non reward by the NPP after the 2016 general elections.
Political journey
Nana Sarkodie Ababio, commonly known as DJ Sources, started his political journey in 1992 at Kwabre East, Old Tafo, Pankrono and Suame. He was part of the active Patriots who worked tirelessly to get Hon. Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, Member of Parliament (MP) for Suame Constituency into Ghana’s Parliament in 1997. Hailing from Kwabre East Constituency, his numerous political exploits in areas like Sakora Wonoo, Antoa, Aboaso, Ntonso, Mampongteng and other known areas for settlers maximized the party’s support base in the Constituency with the late Hon. Nana Asante Frimpong as the MP of the Constituency at that time under the era of the late Prof. Adu Boahen.
DJ Sources first moved from Ghana to Europe just after the NPP, under former President John Agyekum Kufuor, broke the Presidential drought of the UP Tradition in the 2000 General elections. After living in countries such as Germany, Czech Republic, France, Austria, Italy and Switzerland, he finally moved to UK. Everywhere Nana Sarkodie Ababio lived in Europe, his political activism and strong love for the NPP were always felt.
In UK, he set up Sources Radio which played every huge roles for the NPP prior to the 2012 and 2016 General elections. Working with Hyford Atta Akrofi, a former Chairman of UK, the NDC was totally submerged in the UK and Europe. He was as well part of all the committees that exposed the incompetency of former President John Dramani Mahama through the organisation of numerous demonstrations in the Diaspora particularly in the UK.
To help deepen and strengthen the political activities of the NPP in Diaspora, he together with others formed identifiable groups such as United for Change, Aljazeera Ladies and others to push the Operation 500,000 Votes for NPP in the Diaspora. These identifiable groups as well had branches across all the regions in Ghana to further pursue NPP agenda. He, in addition, mobilized lots of resources in UK to support the NPP’s 2012, 2016 and 2020 campaigns.
Nana Sarkodie Ababio, in 2014, was presented with a Citation by the NPP-UK, signed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, then Presidential Aspirant of the NPP for his peerless activities for the Party in the UK, Diaspora and Ghana. He was again named the second best social media communicator and campaigner for the NPP’s 2016 victory. He has continuously been named the most influential political activist in the Diaspora since 2008.
Due to Sarkodie’s strong love for NPP and his desperate quest and insatiable thirst to see to the realization of the break of the eight (8) years jinx by the NPP, he has again officially launched “Operation 1 million Votes for NPP in Diaspora”; an agenda which seeks to garner more than 1 million Ghanaians in the Diaspora to register and vote for the NPP in the 2024 General elections. He has also set up websites to propagate the good works of the NPP and as well use as a platform to continuously expose the NDC.
Reward
From the aforementioned, it vividly proves that DJ Sources as he is fondly called, has really paid his due to the advancement of the party over the years and needs to be hugely rewarded.
I will therefore humbly plead with the leadership of the Party to reward and continuously motivate Nana Sarkodie Ababio commonly known as DJ Sources for his consistent hardwork, persistence, sacrifice and undying love for the party.
LET US MOTIVATE OUR OWN, ONE LOVE ONE MOVEMENT.
Hhhmm, May God be praised always
