Our Security Guards in Nigeria - Highly Regarded by Industry Experts and Our Clients!
The security landscape in Nigeria continues to be complex, with crime rates staying high and the future of the Nigerian economy remaining uncertain due to new economic policy thrusts by the government. As a result, demand for Security Guard Services in Nigeria has continued to be on the increase.
With this increased demand comes the need for Clients to be both conscious and intentional when selecting the correct service partners to ensure they avoid engaging the services of unlicensed and unscrupulous security guard companies.
Mantra Protection Solutions Limited is listed as one of the well regarded and licensed security guard service companies in Nigeria with several hundreds of well-trained security guards placed at more than 70 locations across Nigeria. Our client base cuts across all sectors of the Nigerian economy: oil and gas, FMCG, real estate, hospitality, manufacturing, government establishments and high-profile individuals.
The growth we have witnessed in this sector is primarily due to the quality and dependability of our service delivery to Clients. For all our new locations, we conduct site security surveys to gain an intimate understanding of the location and associated vulnerabilities before we make risk-based proposals for guard force deployment to Clients. This early identification of potential threats helps us to develop an appropriate, cost-effective approach designed to meet the unique security needs of each Client.
We also ensure strict processes and procedures are followed when recruiting the guard force candidates and backed up with screening procedures that include a thorough criminal background check. We take this process very seriously to avoid recruiting applicants with a criminal history.
In addition to screening, our guards are thoroughly trained before they are deployed to a Client’s property. Our training program covers an in-depth security course, including emergency preparedness, incident response and information management to keep their skills current and up to date.
As part of the support for our deployed security guards, we carry out continuous on the job refresher training and provide regular threat updates and briefings, as may be required. Examples of this are briefings provided during periods of higher security threats or civil disorder. Our security guards are also supported by our 24-hour Control Room Operations Team.
Through the competence of our guard force, we have distinguished ourselves from our numerous competitors in Nigeria, which has resulted in a near 100% retention rate with our Clients. This reflects the strong performance of our guards and the confidence our Clients have in us.
Our supervisors and management team oversees and supports all guards deployed to Client locations, which acts as a moral boost for them. This approach has earned us several commendations from Clients.
Our Security Guard Services were recently recognised as one of only five Finalists in the ‘Outstanding Contract Security Guarding Company Award’ category at the prestigious Nigeria Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPAs).
Our entry in this category was supported by Client testimonials and bench-marked independently against a set of criteria by the judges nominated from many leading security associations, so we are very proud of the recognition our Security Guard Services have received.
Our guards are just as highly regarded by our Clients, as shown by this testimonial from the Corporate Security Advisor of one of our valued clients:
“I have taken a keen interest in observing your guards at our Benin and Lagos offices and the residence of our CEO and I am very impressed with them.
Throughout my over 20 years career in the security profession one common denominator that you find is ‘high turnover level’ because of indiscipline, which makes it imperative to constantly return erring guards to their employers. The case for Mantra guards is however different. I have found your guards to be very disciplined and polished in attitude and appearance, and they work very well with little or no supervision. I have never seen nor received any report of ‘indiscipline’ on the part of your guards! Your guards are amongst the best in the industry, and I will strongly recommend them.”
