Popular Ghanaian actor and sympathizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Prince David Osei has thrown his support behind John Dumelo in the upcoming 2024 parliamentary election for the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.
This surprising shift in allegiance stems from Prince David Osei’s disappointment with the incumbent MP, Lydia Alhassan, who he feels has neglected him and their shared supporters.
Speaking on Accra-based GHOne Television, the popular Ghanaian actor recounted the insults he and others endured for backing the MP over his colleague actor in the 2020 election.
He further claimed to have reached out to Lydia Alhassan’s team on behalf of struggling Legon students but received no response.
This alleged lack of engagement and responsiveness appears to be the crux of Osei’s disillusionment.
“When people go all out for you, you don’t take them for granted… If John has gotten the nod again, we will support him.”
