Lagos State Signage and Advertisement Agency (LASAA) is responding to the urgent concerns raised by a group in Surulere area of Lagos State, military officers and their families living in Abati Barrack over a giant billboard that has fallen twice, causing injuries and harm to lives and properties in the area.

The Agency unequivocally disassociates itself from actions capable of endangering the lives and property of citizens and will continue to ensure that structural integrity is maintained in the deployment of any advertising structure in Lagos as billboards capable of causing deaths or destruction will not be allowed to stand.

LASAA would like to reiterate its unwavering commitment to ensuring the integrity and safety of all advertising structures across Lagos State. We wish to also state for public information that the billboard in Abati Barrack is not registered by the Agency, therefore, it is illegal.

LASAA had consistently made efforts before that incident happened to regulate all advertising structures within and around the Nigeria Military, Police, and the Airforce formations in Lagos, but were not given the required support to regulate advertising structures within their territory.
