Despite withdrawing from the upcoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) Ayawaso West-Wuogon parliamentary primaries, actor, producer, businessman, and politician Fred Nuamah revealed his steadfast determination to pursue his political ambitions.
The actor explained that his decision to withdraw from the race in order for his actor John Dumelo to take the position is only a temporary withdrawal from active front-line politics in an interview with Graphic Showbiz.
In contrast to popular belief, Nuamah made it clear that his resignation only represented a brief break from the forefront of political activity.
