By Jennifer Nwosu 

The Ogun State Commissioner Of Police, CP Bode Ojajuni has paid strategic familiarization visits to the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) in Ogun State in a bid to   foster stronger partnerships across Nigeria’s security and public safety institutions. The visits highlighted growing efforts among agencies to improve coordination, intelligence sharing and public safety management.

Babaseyi, the visits were described as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen inter-agency collaboration and improve operational synergy across Ogun State. The statement noted that discussions focused on traffic management, emergency response, criminal justice administration, rehabilitation reforms and collective security strategies.

At the FRSC Ogun State Command, CP Ojajuni was received by Sector Commander Corps Commander Oludare Ogunjobi and senior officers of the Corps. Conversations centered on highway patrol coordination, accident prevention, traffic control and emergency response systems. The Commissioner praised the FRSC for its' professionalism and consistent work in promoting safer roads across the state.

One initiative that caught the CP’s attention was the FRSC Special Marshal programme, which he compared to the Police Community Relations Committee (PCRC) for its' strong community-based approach to public participation and civic responsibility.

CP Ojajuni later visited the Nigerian Correctional Service, where the  Controller of Corrections, Abioye Kamoru Adesina received the delegation. Discussions there focused on inmate management, custodial security, rehabilitation and post-incarceration reintegration programmes.
CP Ojajuni commended the correctional reforms being implemented, especially programmes centered on education, vocational training, behavioural reformation and personal development for inmates. According to him, such reforms are essential for reducing repeat offences and building safer communities in the long run.

During both visits, the Commissioner also presented copies of The New Dawn, the Nigeria Police Force’s flagship newspaper, as a gesture aimed at strengthening institutional relationships and information sharing among agencies.
