Strength in Partnership: LSSTF ES/CEO Ogunsan Appreciates Donors, Corporate Partners; Sets Agenda for Safer Lagos in 2026
The Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF) has commenced the 2026 operational year with a strong message of gratitude and renewed collaboration, commending its donors and corporate partners for their sustained commitment to the security and stability of Lagos State throughout 2025.
In a New Year statement personally signed by the Executive Secretary and Chief Executive Officer of the Fund, Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan, on behalf of Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, the Board of Trustees, management, and staff of LSSTF expressed profound appreciation to partners for their unwavering support, which he described as pivotal to the Fund’s successes over the past year.
Dr. Ogunsan noted that the contributions received went far beyond financial support, reflecting trust, shared responsibility, and a collective determination to safeguard lives, property, and the economic vibrancy of Lagos State.
“Your contributions over the past year represented far more than financial support. They reflected trust, shared responsibility, and a collective commitment to protecting lives, property, and the economic vitality of Lagos State. Through your partnership, the Fund has been able to strengthen the capacity of security agencies, enhance operational effectiveness, and respond proactively to evolving security needs across the State,” he said.
He further подчеркed that Governor Sanwo-Olu deeply values the enduring collaboration between the public and private sectors, describing it as a model for effective security funding that delivers measurable impact, not only for Lagos—Nigeria’s commercial nerve centre and West Africa’s economic hub—but also for the country at large.
Looking ahead to 2026, the LSSTF expressed optimism about consolidating gains achieved in the previous year, deepening existing strategic partnerships, and welcoming new donors aligned with its vision of a secure, resilient, and investor-friendly Lagos State.
“As we step into 2026, we look forward with optimism—building on the progress achieved, strengthening existing partnerships, and welcoming new donors and partners who share our vision for a secure and resilient Lagos State,” Dr. Ogunsan stated.
He added that in the face of emerging security challenges, innovation, sustained support, and continued collaboration remain critical to staying ahead of threats and maintaining public safety.
“We are confident that, together, we can sustain the gains recorded and respond effectively to emerging security challenges in the year ahead,” Ogunsan concluded.
