🔥 Somgas Expands LPG Safety Awareness Across Puntland Schools
Somgas has successfully conducted a wide-reaching LPG safety awareness campaign across multiple secondary schools throughout Puntland. The initiative covered several major cities, including Bosaso, Garowe, Qardho, Burtinle, and Galkayo.
📚 Building Safety Awareness Among Students
The program focused on educating secondary school students about the safe handling and use of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) cylinders. Students were guided through essential safety practices, including:
Proper installation of regulators and gas hoses
Detecting and preventing gas leaks
Safe storage and ventilation practices
Emergency response procedures
🧯 Hands-On Practical Training
To ensure real understanding, the awareness sessions included live practical demonstrations using real gas cylinders under professional supervision. Students learned how to:
Respond safely to gas leaks
Turn off cylinder valves during emergencies
Apply basic fire control techniques
Several students actively participated in the demonstrations, gaining first-hand experience and confidence in handling safety situations.
🎯 Empowering Young Safety Ambassadors
The core objective of the campaign was to equip students with practical tips and techniques they could take back to their homes and communities. By spreading awareness among young people, Somgas aims to strengthen household safety standards across Puntland.
Through this multi-city initiative, Somgas continues to demonstrate its strong commitment to community education, safety responsibility, and protecting families across the region.
