Ghana's Central Region saw a 7% rise in fires in 2025, driven by intentional bushfires for land clearing, prompting a 2026 "Year of Action" for fire safety.
The Central Region of Ghana reported 703 fire incidents in 2025, a 7% rise from 2024, mainly due to a 41% increase in bushfires, particularly in peri-urban areas like Amamoma and Winneba, often set intentionally for land clearing.
Vehicular fires also rose, while industrial, commercial, and institutional fires declined, likely due to improved safety efforts.
The regional fire commander launched 2026 as the “Year of Action,” focusing on public education, community engagement, and stricter enforcement of fire safety rules, urging better practices and 24-hour fire posts in markets.
