This will be his second attempt at contesting the Ayawaso West Wuogon parliamentary seat under the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
During the 2020 general elections in Ghana, he ran a very successful and impactful campaign towards securing the seat.
Although the actor ran a successful campaign, he lost to Lydia Alhassan at the polls when he garnered 37,778 votes as against Lydia, who polled 39,851 votes.
After threatening to contest the result, he asked for a recount, but later rescinded his decision and Alhassan was declared winner of the election.
Meanwhile, a new candidate, Dumelo’s best man, Fred Nuamah, has also declared his intention to contest the parliamentary seat for the Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency under the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
