Read the statement below...
On the 8th of March 2016, a sad tragedy befell our
organization, the Lekki Community, Lagos State and The Federal Republic of
Nigeria which led to unfortunate deaths. Due to the prompt response of the
Lagos State Emergency Authority (LASEMA), the Lagos State Fire Service, Lagos
State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS), Red Cross, National Emergency Agency
(NEMA), Lagos State Building Control Agency and the Rapid Response Squad (RRS),
Thirteen (13) people survived the disaster.
To this end, we are committed to making sure that this kind
of tragedy does not fall upon anyone within and outside our project areas.
People First
Upon rescue, we immediately conveyed the survivors to the
General Hospital, Broad Street, Marina where they received treatment. We also
took steps to provide necessary support to them and their families. The ethnic
communities in the area, have also lent their support in identifying the bodies
of those who lost their lives. We are in regular contact with those affected
and further rehabilitative efforts have already been provided. We are also taking steps to ensure that Contractors assigned
to building projects obtain insurance policies for temporary staff who work on
our projects. To ensure that further mishaps do not occur, we are working
closely with relevant authorities.
Processes
We believe strongly in our contractors and they have proved
their capabilities in times past. In light of this unfortunate occurrence, it
is important to re-evaluate our Contractors and the respective project teams.
Our Customers
Our customers have shown great faith in us and we are keen
to protect their interests in any way that we can. We have received calls and
visits from numerous Homeowners and subscribers expressing their heartfelt
sympathy over the incident. However, they have also shared their concerns over
safety of their investments. We are taking steps to perform independent checks
on all customers’ houses even as we await the partnership of relevant
authorities to conduct their own checks.
We acknowledge that our success as a company depends on the
safety of our customers' investments and we shall continually strive to keep
our customers happy by ensuring a good return on their investments. At this
point, we seek the cooperation and unflinching support of our customers.
Our Staff
Over the past four years, we have been able to create
thousands of jobs across our various projects.
It is our intention to protect these existing jobs, support the welfare
of our employees and further create more jobs in the nearest future as our
contribution to the economy. This has always been our mantra - to improve
lives.
Working with
Government
While we acknowledge the Government as an indispensable
player in the development of any nation, we further solicit the continuous
cooperation of the Lagos State Government in achieving our goal which is to
create luxurious but affordable housing to all.
We appreciate the Lagos state Government for her incessant support.
LET’S FIX THIS
TOGETHER
