The Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in Lagos has created additional patrol teams to strengthen security in the state. The move follows the injection of more patrol vehicles into the squad’s fleet by the Lagos State Government.
Patrol Teams
The newly created patrol teams include Highway Patrol teams to secure entry and exit points, Metro patrol teams to enhance inner-city patrols, and Alpha Squad to respond to emergencies.
The Commander of Lagos RRS, CSP Shola Jejeloye, said the teams were established in line with directives from Commissioner of Police, CP Olohundare Jimoh.
Enhanced Security Measures
Power bikes have also been deployed to complement the squad’s patrol efforts. The Lagos State Government recently handed over 250 new patrol vehicles, hardware, and communication gadgets to security agencies to enhance security operations.
