Rocky Dawuni has stated that not all Ghanaians can be politicians.

The musician, while speaking on GhOne TV’s morning Programme “Xpressive” with Bliss King and Jackie, explained that holding political positions is not a luxury that everyone can experience.

“Democracy isn’t just about political parties or belonging to a certain divide. It’s about speaking truth to power. We should encourage people to be patriotic citizens doing what is right and helping build a better Ghana”, he said.

Rocky Dawuni expertly made this claim in relation to John Dumelo's defeat at the recently concluded elections.

John Dumelo, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency in the 2020 general elections, has received widespread acclaim despite failing to win the seat.

He garnered 37,778 votes and his close rival, Lydia Alhassan of the New Party Party (NPP) who won the seat recorded 39,851 votes.

"I may not be satisfied with the final results or the irregularities that occurred, but before everything else I am Ghanaian and I will always put the people first“Ut omnes onum sint”.

"So I’m ready to help to make this constituency the greatest. (I have new wellinton boots for you too) Mega tsi dzi o. To my colleague actors and those in the creative arts industry who supported me, God bless each and everyone of you, many of you did without me having to ask and I appreciate the overwhelming show of support." John Dumelo claimed a while after the elections. 

Rocky maintained that anyone who stands up for the truth is already a politician and subtly implied that John Dumelo can be proud of the work that he has done so far.
