Ghanaian actor cum politician John Dumelo has apologized to Ghanaians over his recent utterances urging electoral violence.
The opposition NDC’s Parliamentary candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency charged his people to beat persons who would rig the upcoming elections.
At a campaign event the actor said ” I am aware that many people would want to rig the upcoming elections, I urge you all to be very vigilant. We would beat whoever is caught rigging the elections”
This comment angered a section of Ghanaians who accused him of instigating violence in his quest to annex the parliamentary seat.
However, in a tweet, the parliamentary hopeful has rendered an unqualified apology to Ghanaians urging them to pardon him for the misstep.
“I’m wholeheartedly sorry for my comments in the said video. I’m a man of peace and will always promote peace. Let’s make Ghana and Ayawaso West a better place. 🙏🏿 #Idey4u”.
