Study participants of the 23rd Course of the Nigerian Army College of Logistics and Management’s Practical Logistics Experience Scheme (PLES) have concluded a five-day study attachment at LAMATA, aimed at deepening their understanding of Lagos State’s integrated multimodal transportation system.

The delegation, led by Major Abdulkarim Abba, undertook an extensive assessment of the state’s transport infrastructure, including operations on the Blue and Red Rail Lines, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) operations, major bus terminals, and the authority’s safety and surveillance systems.

During the visit, the military delegation examined the complex logistics and mobility challenges associated with managing transportation in a megacity such as Lagos. At the end of the exercise, the students expressed satisfaction with LAMATA’s strategic execution of an integrated transit network designed to improve urban mobility across the state.

The delegation was received by the Managing Director of LAMATA, Abimbola Akinajo, alongside members of the agency’s management team. Speaking during the closing session, Engr. Akinajo commended the students for their analytical engagement and constructive contributions throughout the attachment programme.
She also emphasized the need for stronger collaboration between LAMATA and the Nigerian military in developing innovative approaches to enhance safety, security, and enforcement across Lagos’ transportation network.
