The Ghanaian actor announced on social media that he would be running in the Ayawaso West Wugon NDC parliamentary primary. John claims that he chose to run for office after talking to God, his family, and NDC supporters.
The announcement dispels rumors that the actor will probably run for office in the Volta Region. Since his close friend Fred Nuamah also declared that he will be running in the NDC primaries, the rumor gained momentum.
The Ghana Movie Awards CEO, who also acts as an actor, chose candidates for the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.
On Saturday, May 13, 2023, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is anticipated to hold its presidential and parliamentary primaries to choose a flagbearer and parliamentary candidates.
After how John gave his then-competitor, Lydia Seyram Alahassan, a tough and fierce competition, his announcement has aroused comments online. On the NPP ticket, the incumbent MP received 39,851 votes, with Dumelo of the NDC coming in second with 37,778.
