Obuasi: CCTV cameras to monitor minors visiting pubs

The Obuasi Municipal Security Council (MUSEC) has instructed pub operators to install CCTV cameras to capture minors who visit pubs in the Municipality.

The Security Council believes the measure if implemented will end the disturbing practice where minors in the area troop to the pubs to have fun.

The Municipal Chief Executive for Obuasi, Elijah Adansi-Bonah made this known when during a Townhall meeting.

He further revealed that the MUSEC has met and put measures in place to prevent communal violence which he said has been a dent on the image of Obuasi.

“Security personnel in the Municipality are not resting on their oars in their bid to deal with crimes in the Municipality especially inter-communities violence and mob actions,” Hon. Elijah Adansi-Bonah added.

On his part, the Member of Parliament for Obuasi West Hon. Kwaku Agyeman Kwarteng said the decision to establish a Technical University with a specialisation in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Obuasi is still on course.

He said the contract has already been presented to Parliament awaiting another hurdle before the process can start.
