Mr Kofi Dzamesi, Volta Regional Minister on Thursday called on operators in the hospitality industry not to allow their facilities to be used for illegal activities during forthcoming African Cup soccer tournament to be hosted by Ghana.
Mr Dzamesi who was addressing the third National Executive Council meeting of the Ghana Hoteliers Association (GHA) in Ho on Thursday, cautioned that many people would want to take advantage of the tournament to indulge in illegal activities and asked them to remain alert throughout the period.
He urged them to study their clients and report any suspicious characters to security agencies.
"Don't compromise the issue of guest and security, collaborate with security agencies to track down and flash out social misfits for a peaceful celebration", the Minister said.
Mr Dzamesi advised hoteliers to feature local dishes prominently on their menu and make them appealing to their guests.
Mr Prince Ahiadzro, Volta Regional Chairman of GHA, underscored the importance of eco-tourism and called on the government to pay appreciable attention to the sector for accelerated development.
Mr. Martin Mireku, Acting Director of the Ghana Tourist Board, urged the operators to step up service delivery to a higher standard during the tournament so as to promote the country.
Nana Agyei Twini, National President of the Ghana Hoteliers Association called on the government to provide the Association with adequate security during the tournament.
