Actor John Dumelo has denied ever endorsing the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its Presidential Candidate, John Dramani Mahama in the 2012 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections.
In the round up to the 2012 elections, John Dumelo joined a couple of other movie stars to ‘endorse’ the NDC’s John Mahama (JM) in a peace message which was aired on all the television and radio stations in the country.
John Dumelo headed a promo asking Ghanaians to vote for the NDC’s Candidate to consolidate the existing peace that Ghanaians are enjoying.
This gave the indications that, the actor has publicly endorsed the NDC even though he did not say so in the short message.
But speaking on Peace FM’s Entertainment Review show few minutes ago, the award winning actor said he did not “directly endorsed” the NDC but rather it was a peace message he recorded for Ghanaians which was funded by the party.
“I did not directly endorse NDC” he said. He continued “I did a peace commercial or message for Ghanaians which was funded by the NDC party.”
According to John, he did not record any peace message for the other parties because “they didn’t approach me.” However he recorded messages for other companies who approached him.
Answering questions relating to a story published in the Graphic Showbiz that, movie enthusiasts in Kumasi in Ashanti Region, a strong hold of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) have promised not to patronize any movie he and another actor Clement Bonney popularly known as Mr Beautiful who also publicly endorsed the NDC are featured in, the Ghana Movie Awards winner said he was sad about it.
He said he doesn’t like the story because it is very unfortunate. “I was sad by it but life goes on.”
When he was asked which of the two main parties he supports, he answered “I’m a Ghanaian.”
He said the movie industry is focusing on bigger and better things this year so promising not to purchase movies because you don’t like the people in the movie cannot help the country and the growth of the industry.
He also mentioned that, they are working fervently to make their way to Hollywood and Bollywood to make the country proud and prays everyone supports them in their endeavours and not be blinded by politics.
John ended the conversation by advising his fellow celebrities to come out of their shells and endorse political parties of their choice.

@jeanie, amenoooooooooooooo!!! who does john thinks he’s fooling..??? nonsense,as if we’re babies.
@jeanie, you are the most ignorant person I’ve ever come across on this site. The Constitution of Ghana allows freedom of association, so even if John Dumelo is an NDC member what is so wrong about that? Here in America where I live, I know of so many people that supports the Democrats but their spouses supports the Republicans. it is true that Ghana is very young when it comes to Democracy but some of u have made it worse by attributing every thing to tribes or regions. What does where a person comes from have to do with anything? President John Mahama is the Commander in-chief now, the sooner you realize that fact the better for you. get over it!
yea we know n im glag u aint one!!! u are those who still depict to pple that we living on trees,etc..sucker
hmmmm
the guy will survive with or without u sianos…..must ndc supporters also stop supporting diana asamoah, great ampong and the likes, just cos they recorded a song for the npp? only in gh…smh
I mean, he’s allowed to support any party of his choice, whether ndc or npp…it seem to that ghanaians always want to talk abt democracy, but yet we failto practice it….i support ndc…so does that mean i should stop buying all the twi movies #ashanti #kumasi, because it is the stronghold for npp…COME ON…ewe land is also a stronghold for ndc….but that is besides the point…the point is whether ashanti or ewe, all persons are allowed to support whatever party they choose too…npp is no better party either…CHRIS, i think u should use ur site to educate people on the term “DEMOCRACY”, so that even though we r young in practicing it, we can learn how to use it well….THANK YOU
