The League of African Development Students (LEADS Africa) has conferred the LEADS African Patriotic Personality 2021 Internal Security Category Award on the General Manager of the Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Agency Prince Dr Ifalade Oyekan, while the organisation also conferred the LEADS MANDATE Service Award Corporate Category on the Agency for its role in ensuring internal security in Lagos State.


The Delegation from the LEADS Africa led by its General Secretary comrade Osisiogu Osikenyi in his speech traced the Individual Award from Prince Oyekan’s time at the Lagos State Law Enforcement Training Institute to the Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Agency. He said Prince Oyekan’s contribution to the new image of the Training Institute and the LNSA will continue to be a benchmark for future heads of the Agencies.


In his words, the General Secretary said, “as we commend the recipient for strides as an eminently experienced player in Internal Safety Building; and consequently will be further honoured today with the LEADS Africa Patriotic Personality Awards to recognize his commitments…. Our recipient today, Prince Dr Ifalade Ajasa Oyekan has been renowned for recognitions justifiably occasioned by remarkable community development strides and innovations at various echelons of the Pan-African Development sectors not undermining his impressive antecedents prior in corporate private practice”. 

 

He concluded that the people of State in a short while will appreciate the Leadership ability of Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, especially in putting round pegs in round holes, one of which he said is the appointment of Ifalade both as DG, LETI and General Manager, LNSA.

Responding after the presentation, Prince Ifalade Oyekan thanked the Students Organisation for the Award, while expressing surprise at the chronicle of his activities which the organisation pointed out as having informed their decision. 


Oyekan said, “I am surprised at this honour which I actually think belong to my amiable Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-olu for his visionary leadership which threw me up and has been guiding my trail since my first appointment at LETI. I don’t need to mention that the support of my colleagues has been responsible for every attainment of this Agency; the Corporate Award says it all.”


The General Manager opined that his colleagues and the Officer Corp at the Agency will see this honour as a reason to do more and better in delivering International standard services to the people of Lagos State.  

Ifalade also seized the occasion to reiterate the commitment of the Lagos State Government through the Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Agency to keep ensuring the safety of lives and properties of the people.
