Lagos International Fire Safety Conference (LIFSC) 2026 Calls Nigeria to Action on Fire Prevention and Public Safety
As Lagos, the nation’s commercial hub, continues to strengthen conversations around fire prevention, emergency preparedness, and public safety, stakeholders across government, industry, emergency response, and the safety community are converging for what is expected to become one of the most important public safety gatherings in West Africa, LIFSC 3.0 scheduled to hold from July 6 to 8 at the Marriott Hotel Ikeja.
The conference, which will bring together fire service leaders, emergency responders, policymakers, corporate organizations, safety professionals, students, exhibitors, and innovators, is being positioned as a national movement for awareness, preparedness, prevention, and collective action.
Organizers say the conference comes at a critical time when Nigeria continues to advance conversations around fire safety culture, emergency response systems, building compliance, industrial safety, and public awareness.
According to the Controller General of Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Margaret Adeseye:
LIFSC 3.0 is expected to feature keynote sessions, live demonstrations, strategic dialogues, exhibitions, safety innovations, and stakeholder engagements designed to drive both awareness and action.
Speaking on the initiative by the State Government, conference consultant and CEO of HSENations, Femi Da-silva described the event as a national movement beyond just a conference.
The Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service is calling on government institutions, corporate organizations, educational institutions, emergency agencies, development partners, media organizations, and the general public to participate in and support the initiative.
In her closing remarks, Adeseye emphasized that one message remains central:
