John Dumelo, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon, has denied allegations that he assaulted someone during the recently concluded Limited Voter Registration Exercise. He has refuted the claims, stating that they are untrue and meant to tarnish his reputation.
John Dumelo was captured on video engaging in an intense argument with a person believed to be a supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) at the voter registration center located at the University of Ghana. The video showed a heated exchange between the two individuals, but it’s important to note that the context and details of the conversation are not entirely clear.
In a statement released, John Dumelo called on the public to see through the deceptive tactics of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and their parliamentary candidate, Lydia Alhassan, and to reject the false narratives they are promoting. He urged citizens to seek out accurate information and to resist the manipulation of public opinion through misinformation.
“It is important to note that Mr John Dumelo, being a well-known celebrity, often attracts requests for photo opportunities from registrants. We believe this makes the Member of Parliament, Lydia Alhassan, uncomfortable, leading her to instruct her supporters to attack John Dumelo on several occasions during the registration exercise,” he stated
