The Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) in the Ashanti Region has ramped up fire safety education and public awareness campaigns as part of efforts to prevent fire outbreaks and strengthen emergency preparedness across the region.
The campaign, carried out by several fire stations, has targeted fuel stations, schools, markets, media audiences, and residential communities with practical training, media engagements, and community outreach.
At Tepa, personnel from the Tepa Fire Station engaged staff of GTL, Huss, and Jusbro petroleum stations.
The training focused on identifying fire hazards, safe fuel handling, emergency response procedures, and the proper use of fire extinguishers.
Officers stressed that fuel stations remain high-risk areas and urged workers to adhere strictly to safety protocols to prevent disasters.
