Cape Coast, Dec 27, GNA \u2013 The Central Regional Command of the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) has deployed fire personnel to areas of heightened risk throughout the region.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These areas encompass entertainment hubs, markets, and other venues with substantial human congregations, all in the pursuit of ensuring public safety before, during, and after the festive season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Assistant Chief Fire Officer (ACFOII), Merinda Mary Attigah-Mensah, the Regional Commander of the Service, said the measure was essential in mitigating risks linked to heightened fire hazards emanating from seasonal decorations and culinary activities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Before the deployment, she said inspections were conducted on these strategic sites and facilities to ensure compliance with fundamental fire safety standards.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the vigilance of human activities, she said, was crucial during the holiday season to prevent fire outbreaks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

ACFOII Attigah-Mensah underscored the ability of personnel to diligently monitor high-risk zones, promptly address incidents and impart fire safety knowledge to the community.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The deployment will nurture trust and collaboration in communities and ensures a harmonized response to emergencies, thereby diminishing the likelihood of casualties and property damage during this yuletide.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Beyond that, a dedicated patrol team will keep surveillance in the streets, as well as entertainment and event venues, ready to respond to any calls from the stationed officers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe safety of the region falls under the purview of the service, hence the imperative to extend fire protection to these locations during the festive season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Regional Commander urged the public to celebrate responsibly and prioritise their safety above all else.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She said there were several fire risks and road accidents involved in such festivities; thus all individuals should be cautious.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are advising all owners of places of mass gatherings to alert the Service to ensure there are emergency exits as well as fire extinguishers in their correct shape.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cThis should be readily available, so that when there is any incident they can be used to just deal with the situation\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not use fire cracks this time and in case you want to use bonfires in your celebration, please whether you are an individual or a group of persons knows that before you do that activity, you need to inform the Ghana fire service 24 hours before the commencement,\u201d ACFOII Attigah-Mensah explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n
