Partnering with Relevant Security Agencies

Why Partner with Security Agencies?

1. Safety: Security agencies like LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority), FRSC (Federal Road Safety Corps), Police, and Army help ensure our safety on the roads and in our communities.
2. Traffic Management: LASTMA and FRSC manage traffic to prevent accidents. For example, they regulate traffic lights and ensure vehicles follow rules.
3. Law Enforcement: The Police and Army are responsible for enforcing laws and maintaining peace. They help catch criminals and ensure we are safe.

How to Partner with Security Agencies:

1. Report Issues: If you see a traffic problem, like a blocked road, report it to LASTMA or FRSC. They will come to manage it.
   • Example: If you spot a car parked where it shouldn’t be, tell LASTMA, so they can clear the road.
2. Contact the Police: If you see a suspicious person or activity, call the Police. They will investigate and take action.
   • Example: If you notice someone trying to break into a neighbor’s house, call the Police immediately.
3. Respect Rules: Follow traffic rules and obey the law. This reduces the need for security agencies’ intervention.
   • Example: Always use a seatbelt in the car to avoid being stopped by FRSC.
4. Attend Road Safety Programs: Learn from FRSC about road safety through programs they offer in schools and communities.
   • Example: You can join an awareness program by FRSC to learn about safe road practices.
5. Support the Army: Respect the Army’s role in keeping our country safe. Encourage their efforts.
   • Example: When you see soldiers at a checkpoint, cooperate with them for security.
