In a decisive move to strengthen security coordination and professionalism, the Lagos State Security Trust Fund LSSTF has commenced a statewide training programme targeting 1,000 operatives across multiple agencies, as part of a 10-month capacity-building initiative.

“Modern security challenges are becoming more sophisticated, dynamic and interconnected,” Ogunsan said. “Addressing them requires not only equipment, but well-trained personnel with the right professional skills, ethical orientation and the ability to work seamlessly across agencies.”
He disclosed that the programme, themed “Enhancing Professional Capacity, Ethical Standards and Inter-Agency Collaboration for Effective Security Operations,” will be implemented in phases, beginning with this month of March and replicated over the rest of the Year 2026.
Ogunsan emphasised that the training is anchored on three pillars, including professional capacity, ethical standards, and inter-agency collaboration, describing them as critical to effective security delivery. “Public trust is fundamental. Citizens must see security officers not just as enforcers of the law, but as protectors of rights,” he stated.
Highlighting Lagos’ status as Nigeria’s economic hub with a rapidly growing population, he stressed that no single agency can tackle security threats alone. “This programme is designed to foster synergy, coordination and mutual understanding among agencies,” he added.
He urged participants to actively engage and translate lessons into field operations, noting “we believe that investment in human capacity is just as critical as investment in security infrastructure. Well-trained, disciplined, and ethically grounded officers are the backbone of any effective security system.”
