The Federation of Ghanaian Diaspora in Europe (FEGHADE) on Monday said it stands in solidarity with fellow Ghanaians who had been affected by the fire outbreak at the Ghana Oil Company Limited (GOIL) Filling Station, which claimed 139 lives last Wednesday.

A statement signed by Naa Tsotsoo Soyoo I, the General Secretary of FEGHADE and copied to GNA, said: "We stand in solidarity with fellow Ghanaians as we mourn this awful National tragedy and FEGHADE is committed to coordinating the efforts of all Ghanaians abroad to facilitate the development of Ghana."

The statement called on all Ghanaians to be each other’s keeper and participate actively in the efforts to eliminate the elements that led to the tragedy.
