During the two-day event for the LASPA enforcement unit, Mrs. Adeyinka reiterated the need for LASPA officers to prioritize safety and maintain good relationships with the public during their operations. The training aimed to equip officers with local intelligence and critical thinking skills essential for their roles.

One of the facilitators, Mrs. Taiwo Bonne, a distinguished lawyer from the Lagos State Ministry of Justice, addressed the complexity of the law and the necessity of proper training for law enforcement officers to perform their core duties effectively. She emphasized the need for synergy among various law enforcement agencies in the state to ensure excellent service delivery.

The training covered several crucial topics, including enforcement procedures, effectiveness, efficiency, emotional intelligence, resilience at work, and basic emergency response plans. These sessions aimed to prepare officers to meet the challenges of their roles and contribute to keeping Lagos State on the world map as a 21st-century, highly developed state of excellence.
