Dr. Seidu Fiter has expressed his unwavering support for Tamale base music star Maccasio following the postponement of the rapper’s highly anticipated concert due to the passing of the Overlord of Dagbon, Ya-Naa Abukari II.

In a heartfelt message shared on his Facebook page, Dr. Fiter acknowledged the enormous effort, passion, and dedication Maccasio invested in organising the event, describing the cancellation as a painful but unavoidable consequence of the period of mourning in Dagbon.

According to him, while the setback is undoubtedly difficult, it should not be viewed as a defeat but rather as a temporary delay that will ultimately lead to greater success.

“I know how much hard work, passion, and energy you poured into staging this show, and I can only imagine how incredibly difficult it was to see it cancelled due to the profound loss of the late Ya-Naa Abukari II,” he wrote.

Dr. Fiter noted that achieving greatness often requires overcoming unexpected challenges and disappointments, stressing that resilience in difficult moments is what shapes successful individuals.

He encouraged the award-winning rapper to remain focused and not allow the unfortunate circumstances to diminish his determination, expressing confidence that Maccasio would return stronger than ever.

The educationist also urged the musician to remain silent in the face of criticism and instead appreciate the traditional authorities whose decision led to the postponement of the concert.

“Thank the authorities that matter, close your ears to people who will tell you that you are hated by Dagbon. Because it’s the same Dagbon that has made you who you are today, so they can’t be your enemies. Bounce back stronger, my brother,” he stated.

Dr. Fiter concluded his message by reaffirming his admiration and support for Maccasio, saying he remains proud of the musician and believes greater opportunities lie ahead.

Maccasio’s concert, which was scheduled to take place in Tamale, was postponed following the announcement of the death of Ya-Naa Abukari II, as Dagbon entered a period of mourning in line with tradition. The postponement has attracted widespread reactions, with many fans and public figures expressing solidarity with the rapper while paying tribute to the late Dagbon overlord.
