The Lagos State Police Command has reviewed security measures at Pan-Atlantic University, Lekki following a viral video involving masked individuals.
The command’s Commissioner, CP Fatai Tijani, led the assessment visit on Wednesday.
The visit to PAU followed footage showing two masked individuals emerging from a nearby forest, raising security concerns.
A statement by the command’s spokesperson and a Superintendent of Police, SP Abimbola Adebisi, confirmed the development.
Tijani inspected the university’s security arrangements alongside senior operational officers during the visit.
He engaged the university management and emphasised the need for stronger security structures around the campus.
The Commissioner advised the institution to improve perimeter security and strengthen access control measures.
He said proactive steps were essential to prevent potential threats and protect students, staff, and visitors.
Tijani also cautioned against acts of self-sabotage capable of weakening existing security arrangements.
He urged the university community to support security agencies through cooperation and timely information sharing.
The Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), supported by the state government, has deployed surveillance drones.
The drones will boost aerial monitoring, intelligence gathering, and crime prevention around the university environment.
The deployment is aimed at strengthening security within the Lekki axis amid emerging concerns.
Tijani reassured the university management, students, staff, and parents of the command’s commitment.
He said the police would continue protecting lives and property across Lagos State.
The Commissioner urged residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to security agencies.
He encouraged residents to provide credible information through the command’s emergency lines.
The numbers are 07061019374, 08065154338, 08063299264, 08039344870, and 09168630929.
