The Lagos State Government on Friday said it had made arrangements to deploy additional 10,000 high-definition closed-circuit television across the state as part of the comprehensive Smart City Programme designed to provide a 24-hour driven economy.

Speaking at the annual Ministerial Press Briefing to mark the third anniversary of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode’s administration, the Commissioner for Science and Technology, Hakeem Fahm, said the smart city initiative was intended to allow the people and companies operate in a safe and secure environment, thereby creating more jobs and increasing the Gross Domestic Product of the state.

According to the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Habib Aruna, Fahm said the focus of the initiative included the provision of security and surveillance, implementation of a metro fibre network and e-Governance.

He added that apart from the HD cameras with gantries deployed in the first phase, other aspects of the project involved the integration of the deployed cameras with Centralised Emergency Command and Control Centre, provision of road signature structure and streetlights across the state.
