Speaking to Serwaa Amihere on GhOne TV, the Osei revealed that his choice to back John Dumelo stems from his disappointment with the incumbent MP.

He said he was unappreciated by Alhassan after campaigning for her in the previous elections.

“I don’t care about the candidate there… We stood on a platform and campaigned for the woman the last time. And she was ungrateful. So even though I’m a full-blooded NPP and I speak to power, I will support John,” he stated.

He added that the decision to back Dumelo stems from his wish to see someone from the creative arts industry represent their interests in Parliament.
