Actor/Entrepreneur John Dumelo has reacted to reports that a state V8 vehicle which happened to be in his possession has been seized by National Security officials.
National Security operatives apprehended John Dumelo with a vehicle belonging to the state and retrieved it from a spraying shop, according to a report by Daily Guide on Friday March 24, 2017.
In response, the award-winning actor laughed off the news with an emoji and a screen shot of the daily guide newspaper.
The "Baby Thief" actor also gave an extensive response on facebook, vehemently denying the entire report by Daily Guide.
He posted, “I have not granted any interview both private or public to which I mentioned the name of the first lady for buying me a V8,” although Daily Guide insists that it contacted him on Thursday via telephone and he said, “I wouldn’t like to comment about it.”
He continued, “I bought the vehicle myself; I never said it anywhere that Madam Lordina bought it for me. I have in my entire NDC life met her Excellency only once at a public event. Treat any publication that tries to link my purchase of a V8 to the former first lady as trash.”
“Did I work at the flagstaff house or hold any political appointment that entitled me to a state car? And I’m sure some people within the NDC are rejoicing because of this false news,” he reacted before signing off with “Keep rejoicing…”
Dumelo was allegedly attempting to conceal the identity of the black V8 Toyota Land Cruiser with registration GE 8118 –16 when the operatives pounced on it at a garage at Abelemkpe in Accra where it had purportedly been sent for re-spraying.
The vehicle, with chassis number JTMHVOJ2F4159829, 2015 model with full option, has been parked at the Office of the President Annex for almost one month.
Meanwhile, when John Dumelo was reached via telephone by Daily Guide for his comments yesterday, John Dumelo said, “I wouldn’t like to comment about it.”
In 2012, he appeared subtly in the NDC campaign that saw Mr. Mahama winning the election in a controversial fashion following the sudden death of President John Evans Atta Mills.
He was very active during the 2016 election which sent the NDC packing into opposition; he was seen on several platforms campaigning for the party prior to the poll.
He was reportedly appointed operations director for ‘Agenda For Mahama’ – a pro-NDC youth group – and was given unfettered access to the various senior high schools (SHS) to campaign for President Mahama, although the NDC government had made it look as if he was on tour to campaign for a peaceful election.

But this Domelo guy wants Ghanaians to believe that he bought the car himself. Ahh anokwa. 2015 model car bought and registered inly last year and you are changing the colour including the door handles. This man paa ahh. But I don't blame him I blame JD Mahama and his NDC.
eiii Ghana fast to past judgment what if it comes out clear that he purchsed the car himself\too bad of you guys
I am shoooooting a new film and i need an actor who has experience as a theeeeeeef. Dumelo, you are a perfect fit. Can you attend my audition but promise not to steaaaaal anything when you come???
He has also stolen Lordina's panties. THey should search his home. they will find other stolen state items. theeeeeeef theeeeeeeef. I shock sef
not knowing you are a theeeeef and a liarrr. And you want people to follow your example. Tweeeeeeeeaaaaaaa. Lock him up. He is a danger to national property and to state security.
Everyday for theeeeef one day for massa. I am sure he has stolen other things from the state. This is not his first time he has done it before. I will not be shocked that If they search his house they will find other stolen items from the the govt, incl Lordina's undies.
The only way to stop the lying is to process him for court for tampering with state property with intent to steal. If not he would continue to lie.
You are commenting on the issue yet you say you wouldn't want to comment on it. Tweeeaaaa
DUMELO IS SIMPLY A PETTY ***barred word***< JUST LIKE ALL THE CHICKEN AND GOAT ***barred word*** WALKING AROUND. FIAFITOR
Is that how you are? You have been caught as a theeeef and you are trying to deny it? We are all in Ghana whe the govt asked for ALL state cars to be accounted for. Why were you giving it another paint color instead of reporting that you have some of the cars? Your conduct shows that you are a theeeeeef and you want to camouflage the car. You even lied that Lordina gave you the car. What kind of theeeeeeef/liar are you? Don't act any more films except you are acting as a theeeeeef. But got to jail first.
