The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), has compensated families of some officers who sustained varying degrees of injuries or lost their lives in the line of duty with N21 million.
The beneficiaries were compensated during the 24th anniversary of the agency held at the headquarters in Oshodi, Lagos State, on Monday.
Speaking at the event, the agency’s General Manager, Olalekan Bakare-Oki, said the donation was in recognition of the beneficiaries’ services in the state.
He extended gratitude on behalf of the entire staff of LASTMA to the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for his support. Bakare-Oki said, “I want to especially salute our heroes and heroines who have lost their lives during service.
Also, I want to extend appreciation to the management officers who are challenged medically one way or the other. We recognise you, we are with you. “LASTMA was established on July 13, 2000.
We’re here to mark the existence of LASTMA for 24 years of relentless and selfless service to Lagos. Part of the reason for this occasion is to remember our heroes who have departed the agency in the line of duty.
We invited their families to let them know that they’re not forgotten. “Our duty as LASTMA is to make sure we give optimum services to Lagosians. We must at all times, prioritise the interest of Lagosians because they deserve the best.”
