“Water-tight security measures are emplaced across the state to forestall future occurrence. The command deeply appreciates the supports of Lagos State Government and the good people of Lagos who stood by us and also provided useful information that facilitated the prompt rescue of the victims. Together we will continue to make Lagos State one of the safest states in Nigeria.”
