Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 49847, member: 636"] Fire crews across Ghana dealt with more blazes during the first six months of 2025 compared to last year. The Ghana National Fire Service counted 3,595 fires from January through June. That number beats the 3,576 cases they handled during the same time period last year. The slight bump represents a 0.53 percent jump that worries safety experts. More homes and buildings caught fire despite ongoing prevention efforts. Gas tanks keep exploding and causing deadly fires around the country. People also mess up when they use open flames and cheap electrical wires. Mosquito coils and candles start blazes when residents light them the wrong way. These common mistakes kill people and destroy property every single day. Fire officials say most of these accidents could be avoided easily. Desmond Ackah from the fire service talked about the problem on Otec FM radio last Saturday. He runs public relations for the national fire department and shares safety tips with citizens. Ackah told listeners that people need to follow basic fire safety rules at home and work. The fire service teaches communities how to prevent dangerous situations. They also check buildings regularly and send quick response teams to emergencies. Fire crews keep working hard to stop these deadly accidents from happening. They visit schools and neighborhoods to teach safety lessons. Officials inspect homes and businesses to make sure they meet safety standards. The fire service wants everyone to work together to reduce these terrible incidents. Citizens must follow safety rules and help prevent more tragedies. [/QUOTE]
