Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Fire Service has commenced large scale deployment of fire routers in all public and private buildings including markets within the FCT.
The initiative aims to protect lives, properties and businesses against fire emergencies, especially when the dry season is at its peak, a time when fire incidents are more common.
In a statement by the Acting Director of the FCT Fire Service, Zacchaeus Adebayo, the initiative was described as an integral part of the FCT Fire Emergency Monitoring Gateway project, which aims to modernize fire response systems in the region.
The statement reads: “The Fire Router deployment initiative is an integral part of the FCT Fire Emergency Monitoring Gateway project, which aims to modernize fire response systems in the region. Fire routers will improve real-time detection of fire incidents and facilitate instant communication with our emergency response units, drastically reducing response times and reducing potential losses.
“Key features of Fire Routers include real-time fire alerting: instant detection and notification of smoke or fire outbreaks. Direct connectivity to FCT Fire Emergency Monitoring Gateway: Ensures instant communication with FCT Fire Service for faster response.
“Enhanced security for markets and residential areas: Provides proactive fire surveillance for high-risk areas such as crowded markets and densely populated buildings.
“The FCT Fire Service is committed to ensuring the safety of all residents and visitors to the FCT. We urge public and private building owners, market leaders and other stakeholders to support this initiative by providing our teams access to the installation of fire routers.
“We also remind residents of the importance of following fire safety guidelines, especially during this dry season. By working together, we can significantly reduce the risk of fire incidents and create a safer community for all.
“For further inquiries or to schedule fire router installation for your building or facility, contact FCT Fire Service toll-free on 08000032837.
“The deployment underlines the dedication of the FCT Fire Service to ensure the safety of all residents and visitors to the Federal Capital Territory.”
