The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Kayode Adeolu Olukayode Egbetokun, Ph.D., NPM, has laid the foundation for a state-of-the-art conference facility the IGP Adeolu Olukayode Egbetokun Conference Centre at the Lagos State Police Command Headquarters, Ikeja.
The landmark project, named in honour of the IGP, underscores his visionary leadership and enduring commitment to the modernization and professionalization of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).
Conceived as a world-class multipurpose edifice, the Centre will serve as a strategic hub for high-level security deliberations, inter-agency collaborations, policy engagements, press briefings, and capacity-building programmes. It aligns with the IGP’s reform agenda to strengthen institutional frameworks and upgrade police infrastructure to meet global policing standards.
Speaking at the event, IGP Egbetokun commended the Lagos State Police Command, under the leadership of Commissioner of Police CP Olohundare Jimoh, for its operational excellence and commitment to innovation.
He urged other state commands to emulate the Lagos Command’s drive toward infrastructure development, discipline, and professional growth, emphasizing that such initiatives are vital for building a more responsive and technology-driven Police Force.
The foundation-laying ceremony marks another significant stride in the Force’s ongoing transformation efforts aimed at enhancing efficiency, collaboration, and service delivery.
