Actor turned politician, John Dumelo has said he will beat his opponent, Madam Lydia Alhassan of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming general election scheduled for December 7.
Lydia Alhassan has often said the popular actor is only active on social media and not with the grass root as needed to win an election.
Responding to this on Asempa FM, John Dumelo Dumelo said his constituency is made up of diverse people and he needs to reach all en-sundry hence adopting various strategies and tools to meet all his audience.
The actor said:
“Social media is important to me and I know that not all of them are voters in the constituency but I understand it and I am using it positively because non-constituents can influence their friends through what they see and read.”
Our kind of politics in Ghana is not very different from politics outside, and for me I am used to fake stories in the media and have grown a tough skin so when something comes, I keep quiet since the more you talk, the more people create loopholes in your story.”
