The Lagos state police command, in conjunction with Phicotec Consulting plans to hold talks on disaster management techniques and safety regulations for stakeholders in all location of its area commands in the state of Lagos.
Coordinator of the workshop, Mr. Seun Emmanuel, said in a statement that the workshop would hold in all the police area commands in the state.
He said, “Given the enormous challenge the people, police and other safety regulation agents face on where, how and what to do in the time when hazard occurs, it has become very imperative to allow for workshop of this nature that will serve as been informative, statutory and regulative to its stake holders.
‘’We have seen more scenario where there is an emergency and the challenges of what is first to be done by the police and other related agencies has become an issue just because of the challenges of not being informed.
For instance, the event that happened at Lekki when bank robbery had taken place, and where its involves causalities leading to the killing of members of the force and one petty trader, the understanding of first cordoning is not there, many of the members of the safety team that came to that spot did not know what to do.”
