Ghanaian actor John Dumelo honored his promise by walking backward barefooted from Legon to Presbyterian Boys Senior High School after losing a bet.

The actor had openly stated that if Presec, a prestigious high school, defeats his former mater, Achimota School, in the 2023 National Science & Maths Quiz (NSMQ) final, he would walk backward to the Presec campus.

When PRESEC qualified for the NSMQ 2023 grand finals against Achimota School and Opoku Ware School, Dumelo was confident that his team would win.

However, in the Math competition on Monday, October 30, 2023, Achimota School and Opoku Ware School were defeated by PRESEC.

“I am a proud Achimotan but If presec wins the #NSMQ2023 on the 31st I will walk barefoot backward from Ayawaso West Wuogon to presec school! They can’t win over Motown! Presec? Tweeeaa!!!,” he tweeted.

On Tuesday, October 31, after losing the betting challenge, the actor said he would keep to his word and commenced his barefoot walk from the Legon main gate to Presec.

John Dumelo wrote; “I am a man of my word. I will be walking backward barefoot from the UG main gate to the Presec gate Tomorrow, October 31 at 4 p.m. I want to congratulate Presec for winning the NSMQGrandFinale. I am wholeheartedly proud of my Achimota School and also OWASS. I will walk the talk. #idey4u,”.
