He also highlighted the Centre’s technological advancement initiatives, including the deployment of the Local Emergency Response and Management System (LERMS I and II), designed to improve decentralised emergency reporting, boost response efficiency and ensure coordinated deployment of emergency resources statewide.

The Lagos Sector Commander of FRSC, Corps Commander Kehinde Hamzat, stressed the importance of synergy among safety and emergency management agencies in safeguarding lives, protecting property and strengthening public confidence in emergency service delivery.

He noted that effective collaboration and information sharing were critical to addressing traffic-related incidents and improving response time on Lagos roads.

According to him, both agencies has reaffirmed their shared mandate to enhance intelligence exchange, operational coordination and joint response strategies, particularly in traffic incident management, rapid response deployment and public safety awareness.

“We have resolved to integrate designated FRSC personnel into the LSCCC operations to strengthen traffic incident monitoring, improve intelligence sharing and ensure seamless multi-agency emergency response coordination,” he said.
