The Executive Secretary of LSSTF, Mr Abdurrazaq Balogun, at the handling of the Patrol Van to NSCDC in Lagos on Friday, said the feat was to support NSCDC security surveillance on the state.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the LSSTF was established in 2007 by the state government to investigate ways and means of assisting the police in combating the growing menace of violent crimes in the state.
According to Balogun, the security of the state is the topmost agenda of Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Balogun said the state would always work with security agencies to ensure maximum surveillance.
He commended the NSCDC Lagos Command on the recent busting of Premium Methylated Spirit (PMS) pipeline vandals on April 9, at Baruwa, Alimosho Area of the state.
He urged NSCDC not to relent on their efforts and to ensure the increased patrol of the dark spots of the state.
Receiving the vehicle, the Lagos Commandant of NSCDC, thanked Gov. Sanwo-Olu and LSSTF for believing in NSCDC.
Ayeni said NSCDC under its new leadership, Commandant – General, Mr Ahmed Audi, would do its utmost best in the patrol of dark spots in the state.
