In a bold warning issued during the ‘All Inclusive Show’ on Zaa Radio 99.3FM, the Dagbon Dema Naa’s Association (Entertainment Chiefs of Dagbon) announced their firm stance on event approvals. They cautioned that any event held without their consent would soon face bans and cancellations, while those that seek their blessing and respect would be actively supported. The statement has since caused a ripple effect across the entertainment scene, with many event organizers reconsidering their approach.
Just weeks after this declaration, celebrated northern actor, Aborimaham took a strategic step by seeking the association’s approval for his highly anticipated movie premiere, Gballi (Grave), set for October 5, 2024, at Picorna Gardens. Aborimaham’s outreach paid off as the Dema Naa’s Association made a remarkable gesture, sending their representative, Bogu Dema Naa, to officially endorse the event. This act marked a historic moment in Northern entertainment, as the chiefs expressed their readiness to attend and support the premiere.
In an unprecedented move, the Dema Naa’s Association recorded a video of their endorsement, urging the public to rally behind the ‘Gballi‘ premiere. This endorsement not only strengthens Aborimaham’s event but also sets a new precedent in the relationship between entertainment organizers and Dagbon’s cultural authorities. The association’s influence now looms large, signaling a new era for event planning in the region.
