The Ashanti Regional Command of the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) has held a dual celebration, honoring both its retired officers and its high-achieving active personnel.

While the event threw more light on years of dedicated service and a significant reduction in fire outbreaks, it also served as a platform to address persistent challenges facing the service, including attacks on firefighters and logistical constraints.

The ceremony paid tribute to ACFO (Rtd) Francis Darko-Kono, former Operations Officer, and ACFO (Rtd) Gladys Denteh, former Officer-in-Charge of Communications in the Ashanti Region, for their years of commitment to the service.

Active personnel, including DCFO Henry Fatai Giwah, former Ashanti Regional Fire Commander, and ACFO Rasheed Kwame Nisawu, former Deputy Regional Fire Officer, were also recognized for their outstanding contributions.
