Archipalago made his prediction while recounting his moments with the Ayawaso West Wugon MP at the recently held Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
According to Archipalago, the renowned MP came to his aid after discovering he was stranded at the show.
"When I got to the show, they didn't want to admit me in. I was about to leave the place when I ran into Hon John Dumelo. I told him of my situation, and he quickly gave me a ticket to enter. Even for that, when they scanned it, it declined, but they still let me through because I'm with the honourable, Archipalago said as he gleefully praised the Ayawaso West Wuogon MP.
"Shout-outs to Honourable John Dumelo. He'll be president in the next 12 or 16 years. He has all the features." Archipalago added.
John Dumelo talks about his presidential dreams
Actor John Dumelo became an MP for the first time in the 2024 elections after contesting and losing twice prior.
Representing the National Democratic Congress, he beat Lydia Seyram Alhassan by eight thousand votes to become the Ayawaso West Wuogon MP-elect.
A month after he was sworn into the ninth parliament, Ghana's president, John Dramani Mahama, appointed him the Deputy Minister-designate for Food and Agriculture.
The actor-turned-politician has been a strong advocate for the participation of youth in Agriculture.
Last year, before the 2024 elections, the MP criticised the Agriculture Ministry for encouraging corruption through initiatives like Planting for Food and Jobs.
He advised the ministry formerly led by Bryan Acheampong to invest heavily in irrigation and to ensure prices stay stable all year round.
The actor turned politician has always been vocal about his presidential ambitions.
He first talked about it in a 2016 interview that it was his childhood dream to become president, and he would work towards it.
