Yvonne Nelson announces political ambition

Ghanaian Actress and movie producer, Yvonne Nelson, says she would venture into politics in the near future.

The award-winning actress who is currently studying for a Masters Degree in International Relations and Diplomacy at the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA), said her desire to venture into the political landscape in Ghana is so she can use her voice to spearhead change in the society.

She noted however that her desire was not influenced by some of her colleagues such as John Dumelo who has launched his political ambition on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

“I think the whole thing started right after my ‘dumsor must stop’ vigil. I started talking to people, they are like Yvonne you have the voice why don’t you go back to school, educate yourself and do politics,” she said in a radio interview on Citi FM Tuesday.

She said however that she was unsure of which political party to affiliate with.

"Now, I know I really want to help the society, I now want to be that change in the society, help people and impact society in a positive way but then you need to align with one of these guys. But then, I don't know and that is where it gets confusing and I won’t lie about it because we've all seen what is happening in the country and all the promises from both parties and we know what is happening on the ground. So, that's where the confusion is," she said.
