In every society, there are people who risk their lives to keep us safe and move about our daily activities. More reason Policing work comes with a very huge responsibility as they work assiduously to keep us far from elements who want to commit crimes around us. In the policing job in Nigeria, there are some fine cops who are blessed because they have dedicated their lives with burning passion to serve humanity via their jobs one of those men is CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi the current Commander of Lagos State Response Rapid Squad RRS.
Since his foray into the police force, those close to him averred that he has shown traits of a man destined for greatness. So when he was commissioned, he hit the ground running serving as a nightmare for criminals within his environment. His background and street credibility helped him blend into the job as he gained the confidence of those in his immediate environment making a loud statement with his friendly but no-nonsense persona. While he was the Command of the Lagos taskforce team, he commanded respect. His name spread like wildfire as he was part of those who restored sanity across Lagos with his mode of operation. He is fearless, dogged, daring and an avid risk talker who loves to listen more than talk.
With his stellar performance as the taskforce boss, he was redeployed to be commander of the RRS a position he is currently holding. Under his watch, he has kicked the bad guys out of their hiding cocoon. Those terrorizing Lagos has been smoked out and convicted. He has remained a pain in the neck of traffic robbers, cultists, urchins, hoodlums and those who are hell-bent on creating unrest in Lagos.
The Agege-born and bred cop in his bid to sensitize his immediate environment to desist from some life-spoiling vices and menace alongside his friends took to the streets of Agege to spread the gospel and speak against the abuse of drugs and other substance which is fast becoming a norm within our environment. Last week Egbeyemi under the auspices of Agege Molebi Forum started the house-to-house campaign against drug abuse where he warned people from his hood to desist from using substances that can ruin their lives. He was seen carrying a public address system like a preacher speaking to his [people to desist from crimes and also be a good ambassador of their immediate environment. Sources say; Egbeyemi is a selfless individual. Despite being dreaded while at work, he is a very cool-headed individual who loves to impact his environment positively more reason he is dedicated to making Lagos a safe haven for all.
