Furthermore, various representations made to REGSEC led to a signed-statement by the chief director on behalf of the Regional Minister, Salifu Saeed. Moreover, this was to intervene in the recent banning of entertainment activities at the sports Stadium. Therefore, the council consulted the MCE of Tamale concerning the issue.

Also, the statement stated that REGSEC after an exhaustive consideration decided to lift the ban.

The Tamale Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) regulates entertainment activities in the metropolis. Hence, the assembly tasked them to come out with strict procedures. This is to guide such activities and related matters at the stadium and any other public place.

However, REGSEC emphasized that the conduct of any entertainment or related activity in the metropolis requires the approval of the TMA which is supposed to regulate such activities in line with their bye-laws.
