Actor John Dumelo who is at the centre of the Toyota Land Cruiser V8 controversy on Saturday promised to gift whoever wins Rapper of the Year at the 2017 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards and it tend out to be M.anifest, son of Tsatsu Tsikata.
The actor had been called on stage to present the Best Rapper award with actress Zynell Zuh when he made the promise.
As reported by the Daily Guide Newspaper, National Security operatives caught Dumelo with a vehicle belonging to the state and retrieved it from a spraying shop at Abelempke in Accra.
Dumelo who campaigned rigorously for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) during the 2016 electioneer campaign 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.
Ushered unto the stage with ‘Onaapo’, campaign song for the then ruling NDC, John Dumelo who appeared unperturbed about the story said he would reward the winner of the category with a V8 vehicle.
“The winner is getting a brand-new V8,” the crowd cheered as he added, “2017 model”.
It is however unclear whether the actor is/was serious about his promise or it was just a joke.
