The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly Mudashiru Obasa has cautioned the police in the state against harassment, intimidation and extortion of residents if they wanted to be respected.

Obasa gave this caution on the floor of the House when the lawmakers honoured the outgoing Commissioner of Police, Mr. Hakeem Odumosu, who has been promoted to the rank of Assistant Inspector-General of Police and due to retire in January 2022.

The speaker said, “Odumosu was honoured as the first Commissioner of Police in the state to stand before the lawmakers in the hallowed chamber and address Lagosians on his experience and issues with policing in Lagos because he is considered to have effectively managed the security of the state.”

PLATFORM TIMES reports that the Speaker thanked Odumosu for his openness and responsiveness each time there were issues affecting the peace of the state.

The speaker said, “It is important to call on those behind you to know that the relationship between the police and the people need to be constantly improved upon,”

Obasa maintained however that men of the Nigeria Police Force needed to build more trust among the people and make the latter know they are truly being served.

He then advised that everybody must be treated with respect, dignity and honour and that is how we can earn our respect. Policing should not be about harassment and extortion but building trust among the people and making them comfortable.

The Commissioner of Police, who led a team of officers to the House, thanked the lawmakers for their support.

In his words, “nothing could have been achieved in terms of security and peace in the State without the assistance of the House led by Speaker Obasa.

” I would remain grateful to Lagos and Lagosians for making it possible for me and my team to effectively manage the security of the state and making it the most peaceful in the country.”

Odumosu, who described Lagos as a mini-Nigeria, stated that the proactiveness of the Lagos Assembly resulted in the laws that have helped the police remain successful in the state.

He explained that the Cultism Prohibition Law, has helped to reduce illegal associations in tertiary institutions in the state and also helped with adequate enlightenment of property owners and residents.

He also listed other laws that have helped the police to include the Land Use Charge amendment law which has reduced the activities of land grabbers, the Anti-Open Grazing law, the Neighborhood Safety Corps law, which has ensured synergy among security agencies, the Coronavirus Pandemic Law, which enforcement helped reduce the spread of COVID-19, the Transport Sector Amendment law, which has helped with traffic management and the law stopping parade of suspects to protect their fundamental rights.

“We promise to continue to excel in providing water-tight security for the people of the state,” he said

He said, ” that he would encourage his successor to sustain the relationship between the police and the House while urging the lawmakers to extend their support to whoever will take over from him.

“Policing Lagos is not a tea party. Without the laws in Lagos, it would have been difficult to police the state. Don’t get tired, don’t relent in making the laws that would make Lagos state maintain its place as the most peaceful state in Nigeria.

In their contributions, the lawmakers commended Odumosu for his success adding that his experience would always be needed in the state even after his retirement.
