According to the Divisional Officer II and Public Relations Officer of the GNFS, Desmond Ackah the Service is collaborating with market authorities to strengthen fire safety, particularly in areas with wooden infrastructure, which are more susceptible to fire outbreaks. In an interview on JoyNews on Friday, DO II Ackah highlighted the need for modern fire prevention measures, including the installation of early warning systems and the construction of adequate escape routes to ease evacuation in the event of a fire.

The Western Regional Minister, Hon. Joseph Nelson, has disclosed that nine critical sections of the Asem-asa N1 Highway, part of the vital Takoradi–Accra road, require urgent provisional maintenance to prevent further deterioration and safeguard commuters. According to the Minister, assessments conducted by the Ghana Highway Authority (GHA) revealed that these parts of the highway have become increasingly hazardous for both motorists and pedestrians. “This is an extremely important road corridor,” he emphasized. “When you look at its connection from Accra to Elubo, and consider the volume of traffic from Côte d’Ivoire through to Accra, it is a major lifeline for both domestic and international trade. Unfortunately, the section from Cape Coast to our end is in a deplorable state.” Minister Nelson noted that he has received multiple reports from the GHA regarding the road’s poor condition, which includes severe potholes […]

Military destroys hidden galamsey settlement of over 10,000 residents

Abrewa Ne Nkran: A Hidden Community Linked to Illegal Mining and Criminal Activities Abrewa Ne Nkran is an unregistered settlement in Ghana, reportedly formed by both Ghanaian citizens and foreign nationals engaged in illegal gold mining—commonly known as galamsey—within protected forest reserves.

These illicit operations thrive in the absence of law enforcement oversight, allowing criminal networks to operate with impunity. A significant portion of the population in Abrewa Ne Nkran is believed to be made […]
