As part of its commitment to maintaining the highest standards in resident data capture and registration, the Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA) has organized a 2- day refresher training program on image enhancement and editing for all Station Managers, Supervisors across the five divisions of Lagos State, alongside its authorized Enrollment Partners.
The Training, which was held between Thursday and Friday, 17- 18 July, 2025 at the LASRRA Headquarters, Alausa, Ikeja was aimed at to improving the quality of passport photographs captured during the registration of residents into the Lagos State Residents Registration Database, recognizing the critical role of clear and standardized images in identity management and data integrity.
The General Manager, LASRRA, Mrs. Bilikiss Adebiyi- Abiola in her opening remarks, emphasized the importance of image quality in residents’ identity cards. She stated that bad quality images affect the further processing of resident’s information for card printing and therefore should be taken very seriously at all times.
“A good-quality image is not just a formality; it is a key element in ensuring accuracy, security, and usability of the LAG -ID Cards. Blurred or improperly lit photographs can affect verification processes and reduce public confidence in the card. That is why we are investing in retooling and retraining our front-line staff and partners,” she said.
She enjoined all participants to making sure that picture quality is maintained, so that there will not be delay in printing of residents cards when it gets to the printing stage.
The refresher training, which is both theoretical and practical, covers essential aspects of image capture, including: Proper lighting and positioning, Background standardization, Use of image enhancement tools, Troubleshooting common image capture issues
The sessions were being conducted in batches to ensure hands-on learning. The Enrollment Partners—private agencies engaged by LASRRA to support resident registration efforts—are also active participants in this exercise, as they play a critical role in ensuring data quality from the point of capture.
This initiative reaffirms LASRRA’s mandate to maintain a reliable, secure, and visually consistent resident’s database that will support Lagos State’s planning, security, and service delivery objectives.
Residents are encouraged to register or update their information at any LASRRA center or with approved partners, assured of improved service delivery and quality assurance.
