- John Dumelo provides water for constituents amid shortage
- Actor and politician responds to 4:30 am distress call
- Dumelo's kindness boosts his parliamentary bid
Ghanaian actor and politician John Dumelo has once again demonstrated his kindness to the people of Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency. On Tuesday, August 27, 2024, Dumelo responded to distress calls from constituents facing a severe water shortage.
Upon receiving the calls, Dumelo swiftly intervened, alleviating the dire situation by providing a KIA truck loaded with water tanks. Constituents were seen fetching water from the truck using pans, buckets, and barrels.
In a social media post, Dumelo shared a video of the scene, writing, “I had a call at 4:30 am from Okponglo that they had no water and they needed my help… I responded. #idey4u #thenextMp.”
In a recent interview with (link unavailable), Dumelo revealed that he has been actively involved in communal services, although he doesn’t often publicize them. “I still do clean-up exercises; I mean, I still provide an absolutely free bus for Legon students or the university students or community students in Ayawaso. It’s just that because we do it so much, I don’t post so much, but on the grounds, the people know that we are definitely working.”
Dumelo is contesting as the Member of Parliament candidate for the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress. He previously contested against Lydia Alhassan of the NPP in the 2020 elections but lost by a margin of about 2000 votes. Despite this, he remains hopeful of securing victory in the upcoming December 7th general elections.
