Operatives of Zone 2 Police Command, Onikan, Lagos, have received a fully refurbished medical centre from Haven Homes as part of its ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative.
The facility, designed to enhance timely healthcare for command officers, detainees, and staff, was officially handed over during a ceremony attended by senior police officials and representatives of the real estate firm.
Located in Onikan under Zone 2 of the Zonal Command covering Lagos and Ogun States, the facility was commissioned by assistant-inspector-general of police (AIG) Fayoade Adegoke on behalf of the inspector-general of police (IGP), Mr. Kayode Egbetokun.
The AIG was assisted at the event by the deputy commissioner of police in Lagos, DCP Bola Ojugbile, the resident doctor of the medical centre, Inspector Emmanuel Ogboji and other officers of the police command.
The chief executive officer of Haven Homes, Tayo Sonuga, who was represented by the company’s managing director, Mrs Ufuoma Ilessanmi, said the facility was upgraded to improve the wellbeing of patients in the zone.
Sonuga said the refurbished facility would provide effective and timely health care responses for emergencies which may arise in the course of duty by the personnel.
He handed over the centre to the police alongside the company’s project manager, John Dike and marketing manager of Monterossa Construction Ltd, Firas Jaber, on behalf of Haven Homes.
While opening the facility, AIG Adegoke applauded the management of Haven Homes for the gesture, adding that it was encouraging to know that the public were willing to support the police for an effective service delivery. He said the medical support would provide a huge moral boost to the personnel of the Zone 2 Command.
In a press statement made available to journalists by the company yesterday, the management said, “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 Zonal Command in charge of both Lagos and Ogun States. This medical facility provides essential care for the dedicated officers and staff who protect us every day and also takes care of the inmates and suspects in police custody”.
“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,” the firm said.
In her speech, Mrs. Ilessanmi said,” We are pleased to have the opportunity to assist and help in this regard. As a community, we always felt the need to do something for the police. With a relationship now established, we look forward to doing more in the future.”
