Lagos State government distributes generating sets to police
Chairman of Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), Mr Oye-Hassan Odukale on Monday represented Governor Akiinwumi Ambode at the handling over of generating sets to power police formations.
The Executive Secretary, LSSTF, Dr Abdulrazak Balogun disclosed that the generating sets would be distributed across the 107 Police Divisions and 13 Area Commands in the State.
“Lagos State is the safest State and we hope to make the State to be among the safest States in Africa which is our objective at the Fund. Anything about security is given high priority by our administration. Lagosians are now feeling safe. The safety that we are experiencing don’t come cheap but I like to assure that at the Fund, we are always willing to move at any time to ensure that we keep Lagos safe”. Says Oye-Hassan Odukale
“The procurement is also in tandem with Governor Ambode’s vision of a secured and investment-friendly Lagos. Police formations are critical to securing lives and property in the State and it is very important that these stations function optimally. This is why the Lagos State Security Council recommended the provision of power generating sets for these stations and the State Security Trust Fund expeditiously approved the expenditure.”
