The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has dismissed a rumour about the planned sale of the Falomo Barracks in Lagos State.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, made the clarification on Tuesday in Abuja.
He was reacting to claims on social media on the sale of the barracks.
He said the police authority was carrying out comprehensive renovation of some police barracks in the state.
The spokesman said: “It has become pertinent for the Nigeria Police Force to address the shocking and unfounded trends of discussions on the dilapidated status of barracks and their redevelopment, specifically the Falomo Barracks and others in Lagos.
“While we appreciate the concerns and interests of concerned groups and individuals on the general welfare of police personnel, we aim to provide clear and accurate information about these unpalatable allegations.
“Due to the critical state of several police barracks (including the Falomo Barracks), the NPF leadership conceived a partnership arrangement with sub-national governments and reputable developers to unlock value in the assets by redeveloping the barracks into more befitting and modern barracks.
“The redevelopment of the barracks (including Falomo Barracks), will be speedily completed, after which the occupants will be duly offered fresh accommodation in the redeveloped sites.
“In specific terms, the occupants of Falomo Barracks Blocks A and B have each received a sum of N2 million only as temporary relocation allowances.
“This payment has been made to 347 families after a validation process to facilitate their temporary relocation.
“It is important to note that this initiative is not limited to Falomo Barracks alone.
“Similar redevelopment projects will be implemented across all police barracks nationwide over time.”
