Why even allow them to operate until 9pm, knowing darn well they're unlicensed?

Government is supposed to encourage business not to kill it .Koforidua is not a village.You are even killing tourism ask Honorable Julius Debra. There are important problems to be dealt with not this curfew you are imposing on night life.

Checks and fees are paid before a licence is issued to an operator. The minister's directive is simply endorsing the illegal activities of these operators. He is effectively saying you don't need a licence to operate as long as you close by 9pm. That is not smart. Shouldn't he be ensuring the operators are fit and proper persons?

It is the customers who decide the closing time. Who is the moralist to determine how people spend their useless cedis? Doesn't he have more important thing to think about. Fill those potholes first.

They are not necessarily unlicensed. They might be. The caveat is that they are not licensed to operate as nite clubs. My take is that it should not take a whole Reg Minister to announce this. I have always said we have institutions. Let them work and, STOP the preaching. All the Minister had to do was to call the chief of Police and ask him why he allowed it

What do this Minister mean by “even those that had registered as nite clubs, by law could work beyond 21.00 hours, but must Close activities by midnight". Is Mr Boasiako,alright!
As a legislator, is he not aware that he single handedly has not the right to change the above law ? I do not understand why some people take delight to throw their weight-about. Or was that instructions meant for his household/wife and children, or to the general
public. Anyway

People have to be responsible...The club owner provides entertainment to patrons include closing hours set by law...Why a unilateral compliance from this guy when clearly the law states the closing hours...

Yeah why must they even operate without a license? Secondly, there are 2 categories of night clubs, one closes by 2am and others at 4 am. Certain clubs in the capital close by daybreak 5am/6am, depending on the clientele and private parties. Especially those patronized by stars and celebrities, who don't have a care in the world. Naturally a small town like K'dua might not even have the need to have clubs staying past 2am.
