sure thing, not just Lagos but all Yoruba states there are better ways to go about it than just fighting like those of 'yesteryears' who went on suicide mission .

Curious_city: Do private establishments like banks, hotels and malls take permission from FG b4 installing CCTV?

If yes, we need to redefine our democracy.
If no, why does LSG need permission to install them?

Or is it a case of not knowing our rights, yet blaming others for our misfortune?

It will be fool hardy for anyone to think cctv will be the solution to our security challenge! Absolutely not, that is why side by side rapid development and provision of basic amenities as well as jobs, the LASG is embarking on securing the prosperity of the people by investing in cctvs which will help the security agencies in their tour of duty.

When the police are given such tool to work with, and citizens help by reporting crime promptly, the rate of crime prevention would improve and more people will think twice before engaging in crime.

I reiterate, the cctv in themselves would not solve crime but, they will enhance the quality of operations of the security agencies and help them to further enhance the safety of the citizens.

You obviously didn't pay any attention to reading and comprehension in elementary school...

nameo:
Am actually tired and fed up of this constant noise making and Propaganda by the LASG and many ACN States. It is no longer funny joor. Stop blaming all your misfortunes on the FG. I hate noisemaking.

I am aware that hundreds of CCTV cameras have already been deployed in Lagos, a project been handled by the FG which is still going on. Why not wait for the project to complete or tell the FG to fasten up the project.

Eko Atlantic: Is it not shameful when the Federal Government takes everything political?! Doing the wrong thing to prove superiority at the detriment of 'it' citizens. Drawing progressive minds back due to 'it' incompetence and lack of ideas...

How do U know I even attended elementary school?

basadenet:

But the Police Authority debunk this claim, so why blaming FG.

eko ilee:


Obviously, you asked the question because you lacked the capacity to read and comprehend simple English words in the article posted or you.


And if you didn't attend elementary school, that's double jeopardy for you...

iykak47: The truth is that Lagos state is not ready to install security cameras. When did Fashola start taking order from Abuja?
Blaming FG for his shortcoming is irritating and childish.

If Fashola installs security cameras in Lagos, will federal government destroy them?

Michaeljones36: If GEJ was really serious about seeing Nigeria develop, he would step down and nominate Fashola for President.

If we are honest, he is the best politician in the nation. It will be a shame to lose him after 2015.
Not even tribalists and laptop dogs can attack Fashola, they are forced to attack Tinubu instead.

The only people against Fashola are tribalists and goons that are ashamed of the peace and progress in that state.

GeneralJ: I guess Jonathan is just too baffled and amazed by the Development in Lagos, and does not want to let Fash's Administration to be more ahead of him, in terms of actual development...

the_ripper3: Is the FG stopping dem from fixing most of the bad roads in the state, at least the state roads.? Is there a work station for this CCTV camera. Everytin about ACN led lagos is always a we against them mentality. They should stop dis antagonistic mindset, it is unhealthy. Criticize wen need be but their goons on Nairaland and their party should know that Lagos State is a subset of Nigeria.

Michaeljones36:

Shameful tribalism and jealousy.

It's not Fashola's fault that the Governor of your state doesn't care about you. If you let jealousy blind you, we will never develop as a nation. Every time Naija gets a successful Governor, someone else will pull him down out of jealousy that he is not from their tribe, or religion, or region, or party, or whatever. It doesn't make sense...because then we all lose.

I am 100% sure that the goons in the FG that are frustrating this project are doing so out of spite and jealousy, most likely because of the the insecurity in their own home state.

Sometimes I think Nigerians are SCARED of Fashola. Deathly afraid.
We are used to failure and mediocrity, so we welcome it. It feels good, and familiar, so we defend it. Success (and progress!) is uncommon, so we fear it.

We are too scared of the country Fashola would create, so we don't even attack him....we ignore him.

ig.chuka:

I repeat fashola is not the best governor in nigeria. If you can list just 100 projects executed solely from the govt coffers, then we will know who is the best, last has comparative advantage which other states dont have, we are not jealous, we just dont like the attitude of fashola towards the federal govt despite benefitting the most from the FG,

Curious_city:

Quoting just one line of my post tells a lot about you. It is your fundamental human right to be one sided and rude, but your right stops where other's starts.

Look through all my posts here, I debate objectively and don't attack persons. I'm not one of those persons U engage in e-brawl. I am not a partisan politician or an ethnic bigot. I call a spade a spade. My initial questions, if well answered could have been in favor of LASG, but instead allowing others to answer the question, U wanted to tell me who passed elementary school and who didn't.
Only small minds with inferior arguments attack persons instead of convincing others with their points.

Sincere 9gerian: This report and the responses of ACN foot solders so far is shocking. When will these confused ACN e-warriors and their masters stop speaking from both sides of the mouth?

Precisely on the 9th of March 2013, a Nlander created a thread titled "Have Anyone Noticed The City Wide CCTV Cameras In Lagos??" https://www.nairaland.com/1220415/anyone-noticed-city-wide-cctv

The opening statement on that thread was:

"I have noticed that lagos is getting it right in terms of security.....i have been driving around lagos and noticed the numerous cctv cameras positioned at almost every major road and corners in lagos and being monitored online real time from the network operating centers....giving the security operatives a good hold on thecity.....any robbery or crime that takes place in the city will be contained in mins.

No wonder the recent bank robbery on thursday at zenithbank abule egba was foiled inmins and the whole eight robbers fully armed arrested"- billante ( m ): 8:47pm

On that same thread, the ACN e-warriors led by @Omo_Tier1..,Kuroji..,seanet01...,et al laboured tirelessly to prove to us how Fashola installed 10,000 CCTV cameras in Lagos and how we should bow down and worship Fashola.

That was 9th of March 2013. Now fast forward to today. The same ACN e-cockroaches are on this thread telling us how FG stopped Fashola from installing 10,000 CCTV cameras in Lagos. Ladies and gentlemen, this is another instance of clear double speak from a confused set of people. Which do we believe now?

Assuming today's report is true, if the state govt knew the FG had the powers (legally) to stop it from executing the project, why didn't it get the needed clearance or collaboration before going public with project?

Why is the ACN state governors always having this competition mentality with the FG? Why play politics with everything? Why always ACN controlled states? The same Good governance tour that was rejected by ACN controlled states has been to APGA and CPC controlled states and are presently in Zamfara state, an ANPP controlled state. Why always ACN states? The governor of Akwa- Ibom, Rivers and many other opposition controlled states in the north have tarred several federal roads without MEDIA NOISE. Why is that of ACN controlled states always associated with squabbles and MEDIA NOISE?

My impression is that ACN governors have competition mentality with regards to their relationship with FG. That is wrong. These are two different tiers of govt with clearly defined responsibilities that should collaborate to deliver services to the people

ig.chuka:

[s]Pls stop deceiving yourself, there are a couple of governors doing better than fashola, if you have lived in lagos all your life, how would you know. I think lagos is over hyped.[/s] If you measure their income with work done against other governors then you will understand my point.

emmatok:

Why don't you other governors.

I know you will shout Okpabio hehe.

Ignorance is a terrible disease..

Omo_Tier1:
I am sorry to say your post reflect the sorry state of an ignorant individual. This is an issue deserving serious attention from the government in the land and to think that the FG would engage the LASG government in a childish fight over superiority says a lot. If the FG was serious about getting the project implemented, surely, the right thing to do is to direct the affected ministry to collaborate with the state government rather than embarking on a separate project of her own.

Lagos already has a COMMAND and CONTROL station for her cctv project and all that is required to have these cameras in place and a special unit set up in the security agency that would be responsible for these cctv. Here in the UK, the police are not responsible for the cctvs but they have unlimited access to them in carrying out their policing operations.
