A real estate company, Haven Homes, has rehabilitated and equipped the medical centre at the Zone 2 Command of the Nigerian Police, Onikan, Lagos.
The Chief Executive Officer of Haven Homes, Tayo Sonuga, who was represented by the Managing Director, Mrs. Ufuoma Ilessanmi, said it was part of the company’s corporate social responsibility.
Mrs. Ilessanmi said the facility was designed to be an upgrade aimed at improving the overall wellbeing of patients in the zone by providing effective and timely healthcare responses for emergencies that might arise in the course of duty to avoid complications.
“At Haven Homes, we believe that building a better world starts with creating better spaces, not only for our clients, but also for the wider community. We are proud to have completed the full renovation of the Police Clinic at the Zone 2 Command in charge of both Lagos and Ogun states. This medical facility provides essential care for dedicated officers and staff who protect us and take care of the inmates and suspects in police custody everyday”.
The Assistant Inspector-General (AIG), Fayoade Adegoke, received the facility on behalf of Zone 2, with the assistance of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, DCP Bola Ojugbile, the Resident Doctor at the medical centre, Inspector Emmanuel Ogboji, and other officers of the Command.
The company commended the good works of the AIG in particular, and the police in general, saying, “our heartfelt appreciation goes to Assistant Inspector General (AIG) Adegoke Fayoade, whose passion for making the police environment safe, conducive and comfortable for his officers and everyone around him inspired and energised us to embark on this renovation project. His vision set the tone for this project and pushed us to deliver a space worthy of the people it serves.
“From refreshed interiors to upgraded fittings and modern finishes, every detail was completed with the same care, quality and excellence that define our homes. For us, this was more than a renovation; it was an opportunity to invest in well-being, dignity and safety for all who walk through its doors.”
Handing over the facilities, Mrs. Ilessanmi also remarked: “We are pleased to have the opportunity to assist and help in this regard. As a community, we have always felt the need to do something for the police. With a relationship now established, we look forward to doing more in the future,” she said.
Declaring the facility open, the AIG commended the management of Haven Homes for the generosity, adding that it was encouraging to know that the public were willing to support the police for an effective service delivery. He assured that the medical support would provide a huge morale boost to the personnel of the Command.
