The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Sunday unveiled 62 brand new fire apparatus, consisting of fire trucks and support vehicles.
In an Instagram post, the governor showed a video of the trucks and support vehicles lined up on the streets of Lagos.
He said the purchase was made to empower the Lagos State Fire Department.
The governor wrote, “In order to empower the Lagos State fire department, we took delivery of 62 brand new fire apparatuses, consisting of fire trucks and support vehicles.”
Our correspondent noticed that all the fire trucks and Hilux vehicles were already numbered and had the inscription ‘Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service’ on them.
Reacting to the purchase, @tobioscar said, “Nice one sir, this will also provide jobs for those who can drive and help others too. God bless you and God bless Nigeria. You’re always doing well sir, keep the positive vibes.”
@jgaveia said, “Well done, but please do not neglect Awoyaya, Lekki-Epe roads. It’s terrible”
Also reacting, @venitaejiro.adjecks said, “We appreciate this good work, but the thing is that when there is an emergency, which road will they pass to the place?”
