Safety and security is the heart of any prospering nation. People want to feel safe and protected from risk or injury to go about their daily activities, feeling free from dangers or threats. However, today’s security has become a challenge in our communities and trust in the institutions that should provide the mechanisms of security seems low. As a result, many still feel unsafe, looking for ways of improving their own security. Although, provision of security is a societal collaboration, as the government alone cannot provide security. This has seen private security firms venture into providing security and ensuring that households, businesses are safe. One of such is Ecofrost Security Limited, whose Chief Executive spoke to Mediaage on security issues. Excerpts:

How do you think the Nigerian government can solve issues in the country, including banditry, kidnapping, cybercrimes, and others?
To tackle issues such as banditry, kidnapping, and cybercrimes, the Nigerian government needs to implement a multifaceted approach. This includes strengthening law enforcement agencies, enhancing intelligence gathering and sharing, investing in technology for surveillance and crime prevention. Collaboration with private security firms and international agencies can also provide valuable resources and expertise.
