We Know What NPP Did In 2020, We Won’t Allow Them Again – John Dumelo

Actor John Dumelo has said that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is fully aware of the scheming that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) engaged in to win the Ayawaso West Wuogon seat in the last general elections in 2020.

He assured the NDC that the NPP would not be allowed to do these same things again in the 2024 general elections.

“We are working to ensure that we win the 2024 elections, if you look at Ayawaso West Wuogon we know what the NPP did and we are working. The hardworking executives will not allow that to happen,” Mr Dumelo said on the Ghana Tonight Show on TV3 Monday, August 14.

The NDC endorsed him as the parliamentary candidate for the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency ahead of the 2024 general elections.

This was after the party said that the two other contestants agreed to quit the race to support Mr Dumelo.

“As a result of this harmonious agreement we proudly endorse and present Mr John Dumelo as the official NDC parliamentary candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency for the upcoming 2024 parliamentary elections,” a statement issued by the constituency chairman Bismark Ahorvi Ayitey on Sunday, August 13 said.

It is recalled that movie producer Fred Nuamah withdrew from the Ayawaso West Wuogon NDC parliamentary primaries to throw his support behind his colleague mover maker John Dumelo.

He earlier announced his intention to contest in the primaries after John Dumelo also declared his intention. He also indicated that Dumelo had blessed him to contest in that particular constituency, a claim Dumelo flatly denied.

But announcing is withdrawal from the race, Fred Nuamah said “I firmly believe that the NDC must present a unified front for the 2024 general elections. As a dedicated member of the NDC, I prioritize the party’s unity and the President John Mahama project aimed at rescuing our country.”

He added “I wholeheartedly endorse and throw my support behind my good friend and brother, Mr. John Dumelo, to be the parliamentary candidate for the NDC in the Ayawaso West-Wuogon constituency.”

He added “I urge all my supporters across all levels of the party in the constituency to rally behind John Dumelo and provide him with needed support. Together, with a renewed sense of togetherness, we can secure victory in the 2024 elections and uplift our nation from its current state.”
