Award-winning Ghanaian actor, John Dumelo, has come out to emphatically deny that he is gay.

The 'Turn Me On' actor, who has featured in a few Nollywood flicks, told Nigeriafilms that the rumours started flying around, after he played a homosexual role in a movie alongside Muna Obiekwe.

“I’m not gay, I can never be gay, not in my wildest dreams”, he insisted. “I love... you know ‘errrrm’ women. The gay thing you saw on screen is just a character I played in a film in Nigeria. It’s not real, I only interpreted a character. People who know me know I’m not gay.

Dumelo went on to address another story that has been making the rounds that he sleeps with women on set.

“Most people think that I screw a lot of girls on set which is not true, but a little bit of it is true”.
