Popular Ghanaian actor and politician, John Dumelo, has made it clear that he values politics over business, citing the potential for creating widespread change in society through political avenues.
Dumelo explained that as a politician, he has the power to implement policies and initiatives that can positively impact a large number of people, particularly the youth.
On the other hand, as a businessperson, decision-making is often limited to a specific group or target market, restricting the scope of influence.
The actor expressed his optimism about the transformative power of good governance in Ghana, believing that through effective policies and leadership, the country can create a better future for its youth and society as a whole.
In a recent interview, Dumelo emphasized his commitment to making a meaningful impact through politics, stating, “I will choose politics over business if pushed to the wall because, as a politician, you can effect change easily compared to a businessperson. Your decision-making as a businessperson is limited, but as a politician, your decisions reach a mass audience through national policies.”
