Video Centre Operators in the Nkwanta District who harbour pupils in their theatres during school hours would be prosecuted.
Mr. Joseph Denteh, Nkwanta District Chief Executive (DCE) who said this at the Second Ordinary Meeting of the Assembly at Nkwanta also hinted that such pupils would also be fined.
