By Okosun Dennis
In his bid to address insecurity problems and improve on the existing security architecture in the state, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Hakeem Odumosu on Monday held a strategic meeting with his Management Team, Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) HODs, and other tactical commanders to review Security situation in the State.
In a statement signed by the Command’s Spokesperson, CSP Adekunle Ajisebutu state that the meeting was part of “concerted, deliberate efforts to sustain the existing peace and tranquility currently being enjoyed in the State.”
In his keynote address to the officers, the Odumosu charged them to always “carry out diligent investigation and prosecution of criminal cases, and be more proactive by constantly carrying out an intelligence-driven and aggressive raid of identified black spots with a view to smoking out criminals from their hideouts.
While appreciating the officers for their untiring commitment towards maintaining law and order, he reiterated his commitment to providing robust security for the good people of Lagos State, adding that while crime had reduced drastically in the state, there was a need for officers and men to continue to be ahead of criminals and other hoodlums who often make lives unbearable for law-abiding citizens.
Consequently, it was disclosed that the CP has directed the creation of additional pin-down points at Ile Zik, Opebi, Monkey Bridge, Odo Iya Alaro, and other places to further strengthen the security of the affected areas.
The Commissioner of Police while also frowning at the reckless attitude of motorists and motorcyclists who persistently violate traffic rules and regulations, vowed to instill discipline by arresting offenders in special and continuous operations that would commence on Wednesday, August 11, 2021.
Once again, the Command has used the opportunity to warn such traffic violators irrespective of their personality to desist from their unbridled penchant for breaking traffic laws in any part of the State.
