Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State and newly deployed Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG, to Zone 2, Mr. Joseph Mbu held a closed-door meeting yesterday.
The meeting which held at the Lagos House, Alausa, Ikeja for several hours was apparently to plot security strategies for the february elections, police and government house sources said.
The governor and the police boss deliberated on matters bordering on the security of property and lives of residents, particularly before, during and after the coming general elections, a source at the meeting said.
Both the police boss and the governor did not brief the press on the outcome of their meeting.
Mbu was recently deployed as AIG from the Police Command’s Zone 7 in Abuja to Zone 2, Lagos. Several months ago, he was similarly moved to Abuja from Rivers State, where he was at the centre of the political controversy there.
