I Closed The Gap In 2020; I’ll Win Ayawaso West Wuogon Seat In 2024 – John Dumelo

Actor, politician and entrepreneur, Mr John Dumelo has expressed optimism about winning the Ayawaso West Wuogon Parliament seat in the Greater Accra region in the 2024 general elections.

He said he managed to narrow the gap in the 2020 elections hence it is his time to take the seat in 2024.

In the 2020 elections, the incumbent MP for the area, Lydia Seyram Alhassan defeated John Dumelo to retain her seat in Parliament.

According to the Electoral Commission (EC), Madam Alhassan, who contested the parliamentary seat on the ticket of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) won with 39,851 votes.

John Dumelo polled 37,778 votes.

He tweeted that “Thank you all for the congratulatory messages. 2024 is a must win in Ayawaso West Wuogon. As parliamentary candidate in 2020, we closed the gap from 10,000 to under 1,900 through hard work. It’s time to take the seat. Let’s all get involved.”

He picked his nomination form to contest in the parliamentary primary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency.

If he wins the internal elections of the main opposition party, it will make it the second time he will be giving a shot at becoming the Member of Parliament for the area after the first failed attempt in the 2020 elections.

John Dumleo tweeted on Sunday, February 26, 2023 that “After extensive consultation with my God, my family and our party faithful in Ayawaso West Wuogon!

“This’s the second coming.”
