Firm revs up investment in electronic security

Security solutions provider, Hamgad Security, has boosted investment in modern and electronic security to tackle the myriads of challenges facing the country.

The company, which launched a store, composed of security, surveillance and safety sections to mark it sixth anniversary, disclosed that its latest move was to complement Federal Government’s effort at tackling the scourge of insecurity in Nigeria.

While also harping on the need for individual protection, the Chief Executive Officer of the company, Hammed Ibrahim, stated that the mission of the firm was to make Nigeria a safe place for both locals and foreigners, to be the destination for high end security and safety and to provide immediate solutions to average Nigerians to feel safe.

“We all understand that security is a major drawback in Nigeria and that created a vacuum for us to come in and solve the problem which is why we launched out with equipment sales. We are planning on diversifying security to capture the entire market space in Nigeria.”

He advised that the present state of the country is the one that required an upgrade to battery and technological powered safety equipment rather than depending solely on man power.

He said: “ Technology has so advanced that one can personally protect oneself even without hiring a security guard, one can get to monitor one’s home or office from a distance, one. can get to open the door via a mobile phone and even in an emergency situation , one can be sure of getting details of an occurrence by planting equipment at strategic points without visiting the venue . This is the kind of solutions the country needs at the moment which is what we are investing in.”
