  • John Dumelo welcomes son

    Talented Ghanaian actor, John Dumelo is now a father.

    The excited role interpreter made the announcement via his Instagram page on Tuesday, October 16, 2018.

    John Dumelo in an open letter to his son couldn’t hide his joy over his arrival and promised to be a great dad.

    “John Jnr @johnd_jnr I’m glad you have finally arrived. It’s been months, weeks, days and hours of waiting…..You look just like we imagined. Infectious smile, bright eyes, curly hair, and chocolate skin. Before I get all emotional and write a whole book, lemme let you have these few words to guide you. You can do anything you want and be whoever you want to be just like how my dad allowed me to explore…Never give up.

    “Always aspire to be better and do better than before. Be a beacon of kindness and truth in this world. Don’t have hate in your heart or carry grudges. It is not worth the time and effort it takes when there are so many things in this world to enjoy and love. Do not let others influence who you choose to be, both as a person and in a career, because it is not their life to live, it is yours and it is the most beautiful thing,” he wrote.

    It didn’t end there, as he hilariously revealed that he couldn’t change diapers and prayed his son won’t laugh at him when the time comes.

    “Think outside the box JJ. Be a risk taker just like I am and don’t be afraid to fail. Failure gives you experience. Use that experience to conquer the world. Let God be your best friend and let Him guide your steps. I will start reading the Bible to you soon and that’s when you will understand how mysterious God works. And one last thing…I really don’t know how to change diapers, so please don’t laugh when that’s happening. I want to be better than my father….and I want you to be greater than me. Love, John Setor Dumelo, your Dad,” he concluded.

    The latest addition to the family is coming a few months after he tied the knot with his wife, Gifty Mawunya.
