It’s disrespectful to criticise my career shift – Dumelo

John Dumelo, a Ghanaian actor-turned-politician, addressed the stigma surrounding entertainers in politics during an interview with Andy Dosty on Hitz FM.

He found it disrespectful, noting that Ghana’s Parliament includes professionals like lawyers, doctors, and even hairdressers.

Dumelo emphasized that effective representation matters more than one's background.

He pointed out that politicians often seek endorsements from entertainers during campaigns, proving their influence.

Despite the skepticism, he remains focused on serving his constituents well and promoting respect for all career paths in Parliament.
