The Member of Parliament-elect for Ayawaso West Wuogon in the Greater Accra Region, John Dumelo, has announced the passing of his father, Engineer John William Kudzo Anato-Dumelo Snr, at the age of 75.

Dumelo revealed that he had a heartfelt conversation with his father just hours before his passing.
“At age 75, you lived your life well,” he wrote. “Yesterday, you called me several times to ask me to come see you.

His father offered advice, urging him to serve diligently in government.

“Thanks for being my father, thanks for being my best friend, thanks for being my number one cheerleader, and thanks for everything you did for me,” he wrote.
He concluded his tribute with a poignant farewell: “Say hi to Mum for us all… We will miss you.
Rest in perfect peace, Engineer John William Kudzo Anato-Dumelo Snr.”
Dumelo’s loss comes at a pivotal time in his political career.
