Articulate entertainment critic and NDC’s spokesperson on the creative industry, Sadiq Abu has reacted to the assertion of NPP stalwart and seasoned movie maker Socrate Safo that John Dumelo is not competent to be an MP in Ghana’s parliament.
Earlier this morning, Socrate Safo took to his Facebook wall to suggest that John Dumelo’s inability to present facts accurately is a mark of his incompetence to be in Ghana’s law-making house as an MP.
In the Facebook post, zionfelix.net reported on earlier, Socrate expressed a great level of shock that the Parliamentary candidate of the NDC in Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency will state that NPP sold Ghana Films Industry Corporation.
Socrate’s post in question reads: “A Film Actor in Ghana who says Ghana Films Industry Corporation was sold out by NPP is not competent to lead a constituency.”

The post did not however sit well with Sadiq Abu. In a sharp rebuttal, Sadiq took Socrate on for making such a shocking post.
According to the 3Music Awards boss in his reply, such remarks from Socrate Safo is the major reason why people in the NPP have never seen him as someone worthy of any meaningful political appointment.
His full reply reads:
Remember when you were described as “classless” and not fit to be a deputy minister because apparently you did a porn movie? How did that make you feel?
Remember when you were described as “classless” and not fit to be a deputy minister because apparently you did a porn movie? How did that make you feel?
Remember how your party didn’t consider you serious enough and worthy of information of their activities and support to such an extent you cried on live radio? Anytime you feel like talking down on an industry or a member of the industry you come from in defence of the careless members and ministers of your government, remember the systematic treatment and perceptions that underscores such narratives that have since made it hard for you to get your befitting roles and assistance in your government because apparently you aren’t serious enough and known for filming porn movies.
Remember the defense and the advocacy campaign members of industry have had to mount for you against the call that, somebody that shoots porn can’t be in charge of any space that seeks to promote our cultural identity via the Center for National Culture. But I get it, it’s clear now why and how the Nana Addo is yet to deliver a single of the 18 promises made to the creative industry.”
