A masked men video sighted within uncomfortable precincts is generating both concern and prompt response from concerned quarters.
It has made the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Olohundare Jimoh to conduct an on-the-spot security assessment at Pan-Atlantic University, Lekki.
This followed the circulation of the masked men video.
The viral video showing two masked individuals emerging from a forest area adjoining the institution.
The visit, carried out alongside operational personnel of the command, was part of efforts to evaluate the security situation around the university and reassure students, staff and parents of measures being taken to ensure their safety.
During the assessment, CP Jimoh met with the university’s management and stressed the need to continually strengthen the institution’s security architecture to forestall potential threats.
He advised the management on practical steps to enhance security within and around the campus, while cautioning against actions that could inadvertently weaken existing security structures.
According to a statement by the Lagos State Police Command, CP Jimoh emphasised the importance of adopting proactive security measures, particularly in the areas of perimeter protection, access control and collaboration with relevant security agencies.
