… as Dr. Musa visits CP Ishola
The Chairman/Chief Consultant of Global Transport Policy (GTP), Dr. Segun Musa, has said that transport company will continue on the free training intervention for government agencies that it commenced recently.
Musa disclosed this on Wednesday when he paid a courtesy visit to the new Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Olanrewaju Ishola, at the Command’s headquarters in Lagos.
He said the visit was in furtherance of the strategic partnership between his company and the Lagos State Police Command and to welcome the new commissioner to the Centre of Excellence (Lagos).
The transport policy expert assured the commissioner of his organisation’s readiness to continue with the strategic capacity building support GTP has given the Lagos State Police Command and other necessary assistance.
He said: “It will be recalled that Area Traffic Officers serving in the Lagos State Police Command were the first set of paramilitary personnel that were trained on Emotional Intelligence Skills in the free training programmes GTP has initiated for government institutions personnel that have high in-person contact with the populace.
“Under your able leadership, we wish to continue this strategic skill transfer to men and officers of your Command and we know that you always want the best trainings for your officers necessary to build a formidable force against crime and yield excellent results.”
The Commissioner who gave Musa a warm welcome assured him that with his open door policy, he would encourage him to do more for the Police.
“I sincerely thank you for the support you have given to the Police in Lagos State in the past, and now is time to do it again.
“I am always open and willing to partner and collaborate with you in all of your programmes to help the Police perform better,” Ishola said.
GTP had in the recent past taken Area Traffic Officers through an intensive Train-the-Trainer masterclass after which they in turn trained the Divisional Traffic Officers and Traffic Officers across the Divisional Police headquarters in the Lagos State Command.
Other agencies of government that have benefited from the series include Federal Road Safety Corps, Nigeria Security & Civil Defense Corps, Lagos Traffic Management Authority, Vigilante Group Of Nigeria, Nigeria Immigration Service, Nigeria Labour Congress, and Trade Union Congress.
According to Musa, those that are already lined up for the free training intervention include, among others, Nigeria Customs Service, Nigeria Army, Nigeria Navy, Nigeria Air Force, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Nigeria Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB).
