The initiative, spearheaded by the Controller General  Engr. Abdulganiyu Jaji, came as many Muslims prepare for the month of fasting and prayers.

Engr Jaji said period among the key safety tips provided by the fire service boss is that it’s essential to never leave cooking unattended.

“If it’s necessary to step away, always ensure that the stove or hob is turned off. He also urged people to keep children away from the kitchen to prevent accidental spills or burns.

“Safety extends to personal attires as well, with the Fire Service recommending that individuals, especially women, avoid wearing loose clothing or flowing garments like jubbas, as these can easily catch fire. Instead, they should tie back sleeves and wear aprons for added protection.

“In addition, extra caution should be taken when frying, with oil temperatures being closely monitored. Overheating oil can cause fires, and in the event of an oil fire, water should never be used to extinguish it. Instead, a fire blanket or a damp cloth should be used.

“It’s equally important to keep cooking areas clear of flammable items such as dishcloths, packaging, or paper towels, which should always be kept well away from heat sources.”

Engr. Jaji also stressed the importance of testing smoke alarms regularly to ensure they are in good working order, saying if a household does not have a smoke alarm, residents should book a home fire safety check to ensure their homes are properly equipped.

Engr. Jaji also urged residents to remain cautious on the roads during Ramadan, noting that changes in daily routines could increase the likelihood of road traffic accidents. “The period of Ramadan can bring about shifts in daily schedules, increasing the risk of fire and road traffic incidents. We urge everyone to stay vigilant both in the kitchen and on the roads,” he said.

The FFS boss promised to expand the initiative with a promise  to make its fire safety advice widely available through community , market and religious leaders, aiming to reach at-risk groups and ensure a safe and joyful Ramadan for all.

In the event of a fire, the Fire Service boss reminded residents of the crucial steps to take: “If there’s a fire, get out, stay out, and call us immediately.”

He added that by spreading these essential safety messages, the Federal Fire Service hopes to minimise the risks associated with Ramadan celebrations and ensure a safe and secure environment for all.
