Saviour Anderson Coffie<\/strong><\/p>\nRAT HUNTERS have been
\ncautioned against starting fire indiscriminately to eject rodents from their
\nholes and habitats as the Harmattan season approaches.<\/p>\n
A similar warning has been extended to palm
\nwine tappers, charcoal burners, bee hunters and other people who employ fire in
\ntheir trade.<\/p>\n
Saviour Anderson Coffie, Second-in-Command at
\nthe Ghana National Fire Service, Offinso, who gave the warning, urged farmers
\nto desist from clearing lands with fire.<\/p>\n
According to him, fire could easily get out of
\nhand due to the dry nature of the weather. He, therefore, warned the public,
\nespecially hunters and farmers, to be extra careful with fire.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe dry season can easily start instant fires,
\nwhich have the potential of causing disaster so I am urging people to be extra
\ncareful when dealing with fire. This warning is mainly directed at hunters,
\nespecially rat hunters and farmers, who clear their farmlands with fire,\u201d the
\nFire Service official cautioned.<\/p>\n
Addressing the people of Dabaa in the Atwima
\nNwabiagya North District during a durbar recently, Mr. Coffie announced that
\nhis outfit was in the process of recruiting a fire volunteer squad.<\/p>\n
He stated that the squad would be given
\ntraining on modern and professional ways of dealing with fire outbreaks at
\nDabaa and nearby communities.<\/p>\n
He further noted that the number of Fire
\nService personnel at Dabaa and neighbouring communities was not enough.<\/p>\n
It was as a result of this that his outfit had come out with a policy of recruiting and training people to be part of the Fire Volunteer Squad to complement the work of the Fire Service.<\/p>\n
