Jasmine Obrempong Dwumoh, once a hopeful parliamentary candidate for the Gomoa East Constituency under the National Democratic Congress (NDC) banner, has reportedly decided to end her 10-year marriage for a shot at political glory. The juicy scoop? An NDC bigwig in the Central Region promised Jasmine a spot on the party’s 2024 campaign team and a cushy post as District Chief Executive for Gomoa East after the elections.
The drama kicked off in 2023 when Jasmine threw her hat into the ring, vying to become the NDC’s Parliamentary Candidate for Gomoa East. The competition was fierce, with six contenders battling it out. In the end, Desmond De-Graft Paitoo, the incumbent MP, came out on top. But the real fireworks began after the votes were tallied.
Despite her loss, Jasmine didn’t fade into the background. Instead, she landed on the Finance Committee of the Central Region and snagged the role of Deputy Protocol Director. This rapid rise raised eyebrows among the Gomoa East Constituency Executives, who couldn’t understand why Jasmine, out of six equally qualified candidates, was the only one getting plum appointments. A fiery regional meeting in Cape Coast had executives demanding answers.
The plot thickened when it was revealed that Jasmine was married to a man living abroad, with whom she had two children. Her husband had flown back to Ghana to support her political dreams, pouring an estimated GH¢1.4 million into her campaign. But instead of receiving accolades, he found himself relegated to the role of Jasmine’s driver and bodyguard.
As whispers of Jasmine’s political maneuvering grew louder, so did the strains on her marriage. The inevitable happened—Jasmine reportedly accepted a tantalizing offer that led her to cut ties with her husband of a decade. Now, a divorce case is pending in court, with her estranged husband, Mr. Nana Opoku Obrempong Dwumoh, keeping mum on the details, promising to speak out “at the appropriate time.”
This scandalous tale of ambition, betrayal, and political intrigue is sure to keep tongues wagging as Jasmine Obrempong Dwumoh navigates her way through the tumultuous waters of Ghanaian politics. Stay tuned as this dramatic saga unfolds!
