Fire prevention has moved to the top of the Federal Fire Service's agenda in Gombe, with NYSC corps members as the latest group of trainees. The service put the young people through sessions on how fires start, what hazards to watch for in homes and workplaces, and what to do when an emergency breaks out. Trainers walked them through practical steps, from handling flammable materials safely to raising alarms and guiding people out of danger. Officials described the exercise as part of a wider commitment to keep the public safe across the state. Corps members occupy a useful position for this work, since they serve in communities where households and small businesses rarely hear safety briefings. The service intends to keep running such programmes, counting on trained young people to carry the lessons back to where they live and work.
