… Remains Resolute in Mission to Create Thriving, Inclusive Metropolis


The Lagos State Government, under the leadership of Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has enacted a series of transformative laws aimed at safeguarding the rights, welfare and security of Lagos residents.


The Honourable Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Lawal Pedro, SAN, who disclosed this at a press conference held on Thursday at the Secretariat, Alausa, Ikeja, detailed the objectives and provisions of the laws, emphasising their role in positioning Lagos as a model for progress and justice in Nigeria.


He revealed that the newly enacted laws include the Lagos Consumer Protection Agency Law, the Human Organ Harvesting and Tissue Transplant Law, the Lagos State Enforcement Training Institute Law, the Victims Assistance and Witness Protection Law and the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service Law.


According to the AG, these laws represent the State Government's Commitment to address the needs of Lagos Citizens, safeguarding their rights and creating a more just, secure and prosperous State.


Pedro further highlighted each law stating that the Lagos Consumer Protection Agency Law, protects consumers' rights by investigating unfair trade practices, fraud, and unsafe products which attracts a fine of up to #5,000,000 or imprisonment; first-time offenders may be convicted to a fine of #500,000 or a term of six months custodial sentence while subsequent offenders get a fine up to #750,000 and a longer sentence.


"The Human Organ Harvesting and Tissue Transplant Law regulates organ donation and bans illegal harvesting and sales. Violation risks up to #10,000,000 in fines or 10 years imprisonment. Victim Assistance and Witness Protection Law provides support and safety for crime victims and witnesses through relocation, legal aid and counselling", he stated.


Speaking further, the Commissioner said the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service Law improves fire services and enforces safety measures while failure to comply attracts a fine of up to #5,000,000 or two years imprisonment


He also submitted that the Lagos State Enforcement Training Institute Law seeks to enhance training for law enforcement officers to improve professionalism and public safety.


The Attorney-General stressed that the new laws ensure businesses are accountable, citizens' rights are protected, and medical institutions uphold their ethics while safeguarding individuals from exploitation.


"Also by supporting victims' witnesses, the laws promote cooperation within the justice system. Additionally, they strengthen emergency response services and reflect the government's dedication to building a safer, healthier and great Lagos for everyone", Pedro said.


While urging residents to familiarise themselves with the new laws and actively engage in the implementation, the Attorney-General reaffirmed that the Lagos State Government remains resolute in its mission to create a thriving and inclusive metropolis.
