Lagos residents commend Police over improved security

Residents of the highbrow Ago Palace Way in Isolo, Lagos State, have commended the police in the state for the improved security in the area.

The residents particularly commended the state commissioner of police, Adegoke Fayoade, and the divisional police officer in charge of the area for rising to the security challenges in the area.

The residents gave the commendation in a statement signed by Chief Chukwuma Igwe and Pastor Eugene Nnah.

They noted that the police in the state have been able to curtail the rising cases of kidnapping and other violent crimes in the area.

They observed that the presence of CP Fayoade has been noticed several times at odd hours of the night, with a team of policemen patrolling the nooks and crannies of the once-volatile areas.

The residents also stated that the CP’s choice of a pragmatic DPO and other gallant officers at Ago Police Station has assured them that they can sleep with both eyes closed.

The residents said, “We, representatives of residents of Ago Palace Way at Okota, are constrained to openly commend the security situation in our area since a new Commissioner of Police assumed duties in Lagos state.”

They added, “We have witnessed the intimidating presence of policemen at areas formerly designated as black spots, and the policemen have been discharging their duties with utmost diligence and courtesy.”

“We are happy to say that their presence at strategic spots in our area has assured us that we can sleep with both eyes closed.

The residents continued, “Interestingly, the outcome of peace in our area has resulted in our businesses booming till the wee hours of the night as cases of any infraction are swiftly nipped in the bud by gallant policemen seen patrolling all the nooks and crannies of the area.”

“We are, therefore, pleading with the police boss to ensure that the trend continues as we go about our businesses without fear of molestation or attack,” the residents pleaded.
