SECURITY: LAGOS STATE TO DEPLOY MORE SECURITY CAMERAS

The Lagos State Government is taking security serious as it plan to deploy additional 1,000 Close Circuit Television security cameras, CCTV, to beef up crime monitoring across the state.
The cameras are to complement the existing 1,200 security cameras already deployed in strategic places across Lagos.


Governor Babatunde Fashola disclosed this on Monday at the Public Security System Demonstration of the use of the 1,200 security cameras already deployed to the state by the Federal Government at the Command and Control Centre in Alausa, Lagos, Western Nigeria.
He said that the government was planning to expand existing camera and telephony infrastructure to support deployment of the additional cameras as well as deployment of cameras to effectively cover the entire state to make it safe and secure.

The governor was optimistic that with all these security equipments being put in place, there would be no hiding place for criminals in the state anymore.
