Actor-turned-politician John Dumelo appeared before the Appointments Committee of Parliament on February 25, 2025, for his vetting as Deputy Minister of Food and Agriculture-designate.
The session, while largely focused on policy and governance, also saw some lighthearted moments, particularly an exchange between Dumelo and Alexander Afenyo-Markin, Deputy Majority Leader.
During the vetting, Afenyo-Markin engaged Dumelo in a conversation about his language skills, revealing the MP's multilingual abilities.
Question & Answer Session: Afenyo-Markin: And quite interesting, you speak English, Fante (that I attest to because you speak Fante with me).
