The Lekki Estates Residents and Stakeholders Association (LERSA) today paid a courtesy visit to the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF) to familiarise the association with the Fund and secure a robust partnership that will enhance security across the Lekki Peninsula corridor.
Speaking during the visit, the President of LERSA, Alhaji Chief Sulyman Bello, stated that the engagement was aimed at establishing a good working relationship between LERSA and the LSSTF in the Lekki Peninsula corridor.
In his remarks, Prince Adewale Taorid Ojora, Chairman of the LERSA Security Committee, emphasised the importance of the visit, noting that the increasing migration into the Lekki Peninsula has made it imperative for security infrastructure to be constantly upgraded. He disclosed that the committee is working on a security blueprint for the Lekki Peninsula corridor, as well as initiatives such as the Ogombo Overnight Police Shelter and other security measures designed to elevate the axis for the next 20 years. He further requested that the LSSTF join hands with LERSA to rehabilitate police stations in the axis and provide police vehicles and other security infrastructure.
The Executive Secretary of the LSSTF, Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan, commended the courtesy visit and the work done so far by the association. He noted that the Lagos State Security Trust Fund is funded mainly through donations from stakeholders, adding that a partnership with LERSA would help increase distribution of security resources to more areas within the corridor.
Led by the President, the delegation presented a commemorative plaque to the Executive Secretary in recognition of the Fund's continued commitment to security in Lagos State, while seeking support and collaboration.
The visit ended on a positive note, with both parties expressing optimism about building a lasting partnership that will strengthen security infrastructure and safeguard lives and property across the Lekki Peninsula corridor.
LERSA reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with the LSSTF and other relevant stakeholders to ensure a safer, more secure environment for residents and investors in the axis.
