Currently Ladybird Logistics have 25 trucks operated by 33 women based on professional competences, he stated.

The girls at the Air Force base fire station in Takoradi were taken through steps in extinguishing fires, particularly aviation fires.

The officer on Watch during the visit explained that passengers on a flight are termed “souls” and not humans.

He also took the girls through the various components of the Fire tender.

He said: “The tender does not carry only water but other tools to make an operation successful so the public should not complain that we come and soon our water is finished. ”

The Engineers at the Ghana Railways workshop took the girls through their operations and how the company functioned in general.

The students later visited the Takoradi Technical Institute to learn about Automotives, Refrigeration and Welding and fabrication.

The girls who were excited about the trip prayed that such exposures would become part of their course to develop more interest in the study of the sciences.
