The Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene, has issued a stern warning to individuals and businesses that have built structures over or blocked fire hydrants in the region.
Dr Amoakohene disclosed on his Facebook page that this directive follows a comprehensive review of the state of fire hydrants in the region, which produced very alarming findings.
The minister’s warning serves as a public notice, urging those responsible to take immediate actions to remove the illegal structures over fire hydrants.
“In a proactive attempt to prepare for any eventualities, I directed for a review of the state of fire hydrants in the region on behalf of the President John Dramani Mahama. The revelations coming out—are wild.
“Let this serve as a public notice: anyone who has built on, blocked, or erected structures over fire hydrants should take immediate steps to remove them. The team will be moving in soon, and enforcement will be swift,” he indicated.
This proactive approach, he said, aims to prevent potential fire disasters, especially considering the region’s history of fire outbreaks.
