The Lagos State Government has announced the delivery of 11 fire stations under the administration of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu as part of efforts to strengthen emergency response and public safety across the state.
The development was disclosed in a statement issued on Friday by the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service during the commissioning of new infrastructure projects held between April 8 and 9, 2026.
The projects were inaugurated on behalf of President Bola Tinubu by Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Among the key projects is the Tolu School Complex located in Olodi Apapa, Ajegunle, in Ajeromi-Ifelodun, which comprises 36 schools, a modern fire station, and a stadium with 19 mini football pitches.
According to the statement, the inclusion of a fire station within the complex reflects the government’s proactive approach to protecting lives and property while promoting community development.
Also inaugurated is a multi-agency complex named after President Tinubu, aimed at enhancing coordination among public service and emergency response institutions in the state.
The statement noted that the newly commissioned Tolu Fire Station brings the total number of fire stations operated by the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service to 25, making it the eleventh completed under the current administration.
Officials added that the figure does not include three additional stations currently under construction, with two more expected to be delivered before the end of the year.
The expansion is expected to significantly improve emergency response coverage, particularly in densely populated communities across Lagos.
The state government reiterated that the initiative is part of its broader commitment to building a safer, more resilient, and inclusive city for residents.
