It Is Extremely Dangerous To Keep Cylinders Indoors – NPA

The public has been cautioned that it is extremely dangerous to keep cylinders indoors.

In case of leakage, the naked eye cannot see gas, hence the need to keep cylinders outside to avert fire outbreak.

A member of the NPA Governing Board and Chairman of the Consumer Services sub-committee, Mr. Kwami Sefa Kayi, who made the call at an LPG awareness and sensitization lecture at the Takoradi Technical University, noted that some people did not want to keep their cylinders outside because of the fear that they would be stolen.

“If you have cylinders in any enclosed place, go and bring them out. Don’t complain that it will be stolen”, he urged.

Mr. Sefa Kayi, who is a veteran broadcaster, gave the assurance that the NPA would do everything to ensure the price of PLG remains competitive and “soft on consumers.”

The lecture organized by the Corporate Affairs and Gas Directorates of the Authority was on the theme:”Safe Use of LPG Protects Lives and Property.”

The sensitization exercise on the safe use of LPG and the general operations of NPA involved one-on-one engagements with traders and lectures in educational institutions in the Western and Central regions.

Other institutions visited included the Sekondi Nursing and Midwifery Training College and the Cape Coast Nursing and Midwifery Training College.
