Pubs, Entertainment and Restaurant Association of Kenya national chair Alice Opee said they want the facilities to operate between 5am and 8pm, adding that shorter working hours the State imposed deny them business. “We are appealing to the State to extend our operating hours from 5am to 8pm. Ms Opee said the State extended curfew hours from 9pm to 4am to enable businesses to operate for more hours yet hotels and restaurants are required to close early. AdvertisementShe said the sector is prepared to work until 8pm because they have arranged for staff accommodation at their premises. Restaurants were also required to check the temperatures of customers coming to the eateries and restrict access to those with fever symptoms.
