Lagos PC says policemen will be monitored following the new order
Lagos police commissioner, Umar Manko, has announced that a new operational order has been released for the Lagos and Ogun Police Commands to constitute joint border patrol teams.
Manko disclosed this in an interview yesterday.
“Already, we have an operational order which we are going to implement very soon, criminals around the border areas of these two states have no choice than to leave,” Manko said.
Manko added that committed and dedicated officers and men would be deployed to man strategic border areas in the two states.
He said that the patrol teams would be provided with working tools and a conducive atmosphere to enhance their operations.
According to him, the officers and men will also be monitored, in line with the Inspector General’s directives.
“We don’t expect anything less than positive results from the patrol teams,” he added.
Motorists on the Lagos/Ibadan expressway have been exposed to robbery attacks at specific areas such as Sapade, Ogere and the 7-km bridge, near Lagos.
