First-rate Testimonials

Hear what our wonderful clients have to say about Mantra’s Nigerian security services.

Nigeria can be a challenging place to do business. One of the major considerations for any company is the need to ensure the safe and secure transportation of its employees throughout Nigeria, including their arrival at international airports and travelling by road to hotels, offices and meeting locations.

We have a proven track record of providing bespoke security services tailored to the exact needs of each client, as demonstrated by the following testimonials.

The Innovate UK delegation together with Mantra personnel at Lagos Airport, Nigeria following their one week visit to Nigeria in October 2024.

Innovate UK visited Nigeria in October 2024 with a delegation of 21 visitors from 16 innovative UK companies.

Our security services for Innovate’s visit to Nigeria included:

  • Security Consultancy: Advanced Survey Report including threats analysis, risk assessments, an inspection of all routes and advanced hotel and venue security coordination

  • Aviation Security Services including airport Meet & Greet with Fast-Track Immigration Assistance to ensure a smooth arrival and departure

  • Armed Escort Services to ensure secure transportation for all delegates to multiple locations in Lagos and Ogun State throughout their stay

  • In-person Safety and Security briefing to all delegates on arrival at their designated hotel

The 21 delegates participated in many business meetings, seminars, receptions and networking events across the week. Each one of these trips was safely managed by our expert security teams.

"As a group of UK businesses visiting Nigeria as part of a UK Government Initiative, we were immensely impressed by the exceptional support provided by Mantra. Their professionalism, meticulous attention to our unique needs, and round-the-clock dedication ensured our safety and security throughout our stay. From the moment we arrived, their team ( Joseph Idoko as our lead contact and Samuel, who led the day-to-day operations,  were there to offer reassurance, expert guidance, and seamless coordination. Their comprehensive approach allowed us to focus on our business objectives without any worries. We wholeheartedly recommend Mantra to any organisation seeking top-tier security services."

Bulwark Intelligence Solutions used our personal protection services and our Armed Escort Services to safely transport an International film crew that filmed a documentary in North East Nigeria, which is a high threat area:

“We have used Mantra’s security services for many projects including transporting an international film crew across a very challenging location. We have always found them to be extremely knowledgeable about what is needed to help secure our clients and they fully understand our business needs.”

Our Security Guard Services are also consistently in demand across all sectors of the Nigerian economy: oil and gas, real estate, hospitality, manufacturing, government establishments and high-profile individuals.

Our thorough recruitment and vetting processes together with our outstanding training programs ensure that our guards are fully qualified before they start their role, and our regular refresher training courses help to keep their skills sharp and up to date.

We currently employ hundreds of well-trained guards at over 70 locations and are proud to maintain a near perfect retention rate among our satisfied clients.

The Chief Security Officer for TradeDepot Limited fully recognises the quality of our Security Guard Services and our Security Consultancy Teams, as well as our Armed Escort and Management Services:

“I am writing to express our utmost satisfaction with the exceptional security guard services provided by Mantra Protection Solutions Limited. The professionalism and dedication demonstrated by the Mantra guards has significantly contributed to the security and well-being of our premises. Mantra’s guards are not only client-focused, but also exhibit a high level of training, ensuring that they effectively fulfil their security responsibilities. Their commitment to delivering on the assigned security functions has been consistently commendable.

Moreover, we would like to highlight the top-notch supervision provided by Mantra ensuring that security measures are implemented seamlessly. The constant support from the top management of Mantra has further strengthened our confidence in their services.

We highly recommend Mantra Protection Solutions Limited for their exemplary performance and unwavering commitment to maintaining a secure environment.”

Our Security Guard Services are also highly regarded by the Corporate Security Advisor for Elcrest E&P:

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.”
