He said many of them are suffering and found the &#8220;business&#8221; a path out of poverty.<\/p>\n<p>Yakubu could not give details of the company&#8217;s legal status explaining he has only been in the business for about four months.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unless I ask our top leaders&#8221;, he said after he was asked if the venture is duly registered.<\/p>\n<p>The Ashanti Regional Minister, Simon Osei-Mensah who accompanied the police, interrogated the young men and wondered what the nature of the business is.<\/p>\n<p>The police have moved the 580 youths to the Jubilee Park for further screening. They are treating the group as a security threat.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 63 updated by: 63 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Friday, 22 December 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-12-22 The leaders say they were assembled by a networking company called Qnet Four men have been arrested in the Ashanti regional capital, Kumasi, for allegedly camping 580 youth in a shady recruitment business.
