Rent Control boss, hostel owners chairman clash over regulation of private hostels

The Acting Rent Control Commissioner, Frederick Opoku, and Chairman of the Hostel Owners Association, Bishop Owusu-Bi, have clashed over the approach being adopted by the Rent Control Department to regulate private hostels.
The disagreement surfaced during a discussion on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on Wednesday, August 19, with Bishop Owusu-Bi accusing the Rent Control Department of using the wrong approach in dealing with hostel owners.
Bishop Owusu-Bi said the Commissioner, however, declined the invitation, arguing that he could not use state funds to travel to meet private hostel owners and that the association should rather finance his trip.
