My agents are being assaulted at registration centers – John Dumelo laments

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon, John Dumelo, has isssued an apology over recent comments on electoral violence.

The actor had threatened to deal with anyone that attempts to rig votes in the upcoming elections.
