A few days ago there was news about Chief Justice setting up a court purposely to prosecute defaulters of Television licence fees.
But the controversial musician, Kwame Asare Obeng aka A Plus who thinks it is nonsense to institute such a court has vowed never to pay a dime for TV licence fees.
According to the Kwame A Plus, he is willing to be the first defaulter to be jailed.
The Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) in a way to generate revenue for the national Television secured permission from Sophia Akuffo–Chief Justice to collect fees from television sets owners in the country.
According to the directive, failure to pay the recommended fees could result in a jail term for the defaulter. According to a report by mynewsgh, Kwame A Plus has stated firmly that he would never pay any television licence fees and that he is ready to go to jail.
