Artistes and showbiz stars should be careful

Commenting on the arrest of Medikal, Enews.com.gh's editor, Myers Hansen, advised that musicians and other entertainers should be careful about their activities.

Hansen indicated that even though showbiz allows for stunts and show-offs, players should know that there are laws in Ghana and they have to operate within.

"The operations of the police these days show they are not taking anything lightly. It is thus important that our stars go about their duties and activities within the confines of the law in order not to fall foul.
