LSSTF constitutes monitoring team

LSSTF

The Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF) has constituted a monitoring team to look into the activities of beneficiaries from the public assistance given to the Fund .

The LSSTF Monitoring Team among  other things, will look into how security  agencies use the logistics support and equipment given to them by the fund .

This is to ensure that all security agencies  in Lagos that benefit from the LSSTF largesse are responsible and responsive to the public goodwill which is reposed on them.

The LSSTF Monitoring Team is in fulfillment of the pledge made  by  the Executive Secretary/CEO of LSSTF, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan, at the recent  media parley with senior editors and media executives,where he assured them  that the era of abuse and misuse of public resources is over.

Ogunsan outlined his leadership focus at the media parley held at the Agency’s Headquarters,Alausa, Ikeja , on December 5,2025,saying that,”Public confidence in the Fund is essential. Under my leadership, transparency will be the standard not the exception. We will, maintain strict oversight on contractor performance, monitor all funded projects closely, publish updates on the utilization of donations, strengthen internal governance and reporting, and deepen stakeholder communication and feedback mechanisms.’

With the LSSTF monitoring team  duly constituted, Ogunsan gave the members  marching orders  to include: Monitoring and tracking of vehicles and other security assets belonging to RRS; conducting routine field inspections to determine the state of Fund’s assets; maintaining accurate records of assets deployed by the Fund to the RRS and providing operational reports.

Other duties assigned to the team include: accessing the application of assets provided to the security agencies as a prerequisite for further allocation; monitoring repairs and refurbishments embarked upon by the Fund; and any other duty as may be assigned from time to time.”

The inauguration and public presentation of a monitoring vehicle to facilitate the efforts of the LSSTF monitoring team will be held very soon.
