The Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) yesterday held a fire safety sensitisation campaign for staff of the New Times Corporation (NTC) in Accra.
The exercise sought to raise awareness about fire prevention and safety measures in offices, homes, and business centres.
Led by Assistant Divisional Officer 1 (ADO 1) Isaac Tengfaa, the GNFS team took the NTC staff through handling domestic gas cylinders, causes of fire, classes of fire and extinguishing medium, and emergency contact numbers.
The Head of Safety, Industrial Area Fire Command said that fire could escalate when there was presence of oxygen, fuel, and heat, adding that when one of these components is absent, there would be no fire.
