The Northern Regional capital is reeling from a dramatic convergence of events, including the ongoing high-stakes anti-narcotics operation by BLACK MARIA, the Ghana Police Service’s Inspector General of Police (IGP) Special Operations Team, and the contentious online activities of renowned Dagnanli film actor and comedian Abdul Baasit, better known as Kulceri.
Kulceri, once celebrated for his celebrity, bravery, and creative enthusiasm in comedy and film directing, is now at the center of a viral storm. The actor’s recent actions demonstrate a profound dissatisfaction with his traditional “hustle,” as he ventures into a realm that has sparked widespread public concern.

Kulceri has generated a “tragic traffic” on social media with a series of recent trending videos. Followers are left uneasy, wondering whether these scenes are part of his usual comedic repertoire or a foreshadowing of a much darker discovery.
Crucially, sources indicate that the new video content appears to violate both traditional norms and Ghana’s broader statutory laws. This has sparked widespread speculation that the actor is involved in or promotes the illegal drug trade, which the IGP’s elite team is currently aggressively combating in Tamale.
“This tragic moment gives an awful feeling to concerned and caring individuals,” a local community leader is quoted as saying, expressing his dismay that such a prominent figure is now associated with potential criminal activity.
The situation becomes even more pressing when considering Ghana’s IGP Special Operations Team’s unstoppable strength. Their current, highly visible presence in Tamale is a concerted effort to combat illegal activities, with a particular emphasis on the sale and use of hard drugs such as Indian hemp, weed, and Tramadol.
The actor’s actions risk jeopardizing the diligent efforts made for the well-being of the Northern Region. The region’s Muslim community, in particular, has long worked to maintain its dignity, well-known social behavior, and strong cultural habits that set it apart from the rest of the world. An actor of Kulceri’s stature dabbling in drug-related themes threatens to tarnish his hard-earned reputation.
Information directly linking Kulceri to drug dealing remains shrouded in confusion. Non-confirmed sources are generating what has been termed “donkey form” evidence, slow to appear and highly unreliable, resulting in a “haphazard consensus” that the actor’s actions are tied to the local narcotics problem.
The very ambiguity of the circulating videos, which generate high but “unaware traffic,” feeds the cycle of rumor and fear.
This controversy adds another distressing chapter to the list of problems facing the community. It is being viewed as a grim progression “from problem to problem,” starting from the shocking case involving Afa Abdul-Rahaman Madaha, who was embroiled in accusations of ritual killing, to the current surge in illegal drug activities and Tramadol sales.
The community now anxiously awaits clarification from Kulceri, hoping his viral acts are a misunderstood artistic statement and not a genuine engagement in the criminal enterprise that is poisoning the youth and attracting the full force of the nation’s law enforcement.
