The Nigeria Police Force has explained the details regarding the redevelopment of police barracks, with a specific focus on the Falomo Barracks in Lagos State.
According to a statement on Tuesday via X, signed by the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the police counter what it describes as “misleading write-ups and social media comments” alleging the sale of the Falomo Barracks land.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Force Public Relation Officer, Olumuyiwa Adenobi on Tuesday.
According to the statement, the redevelopment initiative is part of a broader strategy to improve living conditions for police personnel and their families nationwide.
The statement read,, “Due to the critical state of several police barracks (including the Falomo Barracks) the NPF leadership conceived a partnership arrangement with sub-national governments and reputable developers to unlock value in the assets by redeveloping the barracks into more befitting and modern barracks – with complementary facilities and modern infrastructure.”
In response to concerns about the conditions at Falomo Barracks, the NPF announced that residents of Blocks A and B were given a temporary relocation allowance of two million Naira each.
The statement further read, “This payment has been made to 347 families after a validation process to facilitate their temporary relocation.
"This initiative is not limited to Falomo Barracks, stating, “Similar redevelopment projects will be implemented across all police barracks nationwide over time.”
