POLICE SCORE HIGH POINTS; REHABILITATE LAGOS ROAD

Police men @ work

In what many consider a high point in corporate social responsibility activity, men of Lagos State Police Command, Ejigbo Division led by the DPO, CSP Olabisi Okuwobi have scored high points by embarking on rehabilitation and patching of a popular road in Lagos.

The very popular Biliaminu Akinsaya road off NNPC road Ejigbo known for regular accidents and traffic congestions got a special touch when the DPO Okuwobi  

mobilised her officers with bags of granite, sand and cement to fill up the potholes and craters which obstruct the free flow of traffic on the link which connects Ejigbo and Ajao estate

Apparently irked by the huge traffic congestion on roads leading to Ejigbo and its environs, caused by the deep craters on the road,  DPO Okuwobi mobilised her men to seek palliative measure yet.

Eye witnesses say the officers moved materials from their station to the site and started patching the pot holes to the admiration of the residents, members of the Neighborhood Watch and PCRC some of whom volunteered to join in the work.

This is the first time Nigerians are seeing such a positive gesture from the Nigeria Police seen by many as controversial.

This is not the first time DPO, CSP Okuwobi will lead positive activity that project good image for the Police in Ejigbo aside from her regular duties of law maintenance which has seen her recovering stolen cars and generally projecting a crime free environment.

She is a regular sight controlling free flow of traffic at notorious congestion spots around the division.

Meanwhile, words of commendation continue to reach DPO Okuwobi both from the genera pubic as well as from Police hierarchy for scoring these high point.
