Residents appeal for shorter curfew to revive business in Nkwanta South
Residents of Nkwanta South in the Oti Region have called on the Minister for the Interior and other relevant stakeholders to review the current curfew hours, arguing that the restriction is crippling business and disrupting everyday life in the municipality. The curfew is currently enforced from 5:00 pm to 6:00 am. Residents are appealing for the curfew to be adjusted from 5:00 pm to at least 8:00 pm.
Some residents questioned the effectiveness of the curfew, noting that incidents of violence and disturbances have reportedly continued despite the restrictions. They insisted that limiting movement in the evenings has not addressed the underlying tensions driving the conflict. The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for Nkwanta South, Joseph Awal Antwi, has called on labour unions, professional associations, and community groups to work closely with security agencies to help resolve the situation.
