The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Ayawaso Central, Rudolf Collinwoode Williams, has directed churches operating within school premises in the municipality to immediately cease their activities.
He warned that a regular task force will now monitor compliance with the directive every Sunday.
Speaking in an interview on JoyNews’ The Pulse on Monday, March 30, Mr Williams said the decision follows concerns over safety and public order, especially in light of the recent building collapse in the municipality that has claimed three lives.
“The churches who operate within the schools’ premises within the Ayawaso Central Municipality, please kindly desist.
"From now on, every Sunday, we’ll have a task force going around to check. And when you are found culpable, that one is at your own peril,” he stated.
The directive underscores the municipality’s commitment to enforcing safety regulations and ensuring that school premises are not used in ways that could put lives at risk.
Authorities have not yet specified the sanctions that will be applied to churches found in violation of this directive, but MCE Williams emphasisd that enforcement will be strict and ongoing.
