Preventing Festive Fire Outbreaks | Hope On Air

Christmas & Fire Outbreaks | Fire Safety During the Festive Season | Hope On Air

The festive season should be a time of joy, family, and celebration — not fire outbreaks and loss.

In this episode of Hope On Air, we focus on fire safety during the Christmas and festive season, a period when fire incidents increase due to higher electricity use, cooking activities, decorations, generators, and public gatherings.

Guests:
ADO Ebenezer Dadzie, Deputy P.R.O, Ghana National Fire Service (Central Region)
ACFO II Merinder Mary Attigah-Mensah, Regional Commander, Ghana National Fire Service

Together, we discuss:

Why fire outbreaks increase during Christmas

Common causes of festive-season fires

Fire prevention tips for homes, shops, churches, and events

Safe use of electricity, gas, candles, and generators

What to do immediately when a fire breaks out

The role of the Ghana National Fire Service in emergency response

How families and communities can stay alert, prepared, and safe

This episode is a must-watch for households, business owners, churches, event organisers, and anyone celebrating the festive season.
