Maccasio did not mince words as he took aim at traditional leaders, politicians, and opinion leaders in Northern Ghana during his time as host of the Buɣum Beni Drive. The rapper described them as “unappreciatives,” accusing them of failing to appreciate the role of entertainers in promoting peace and development in the region.
According to him, artistes and actors have worked tirelessly to ensure the youth remain peaceful and united, contributing significantly to the region’s stability. However, he expressed disappointment that these contributions are overlooked. “They don’t know our worth; that’s why they’ve abandoned the idea of building an entertainment center in the North,” Maccasio lamented.
He emphasized that a standard entertainment venue would not only benefit artistes but also elevate the entire region’s cultural and economic standing. Until leaders recognize the value of entertainment, Maccasio believes the North’s creative industry will continue to struggle. Watch him speak below,
