A security expert, Alhaji Ibrahim Odofin, yesterday, said that effective policing has reduced incidences of kidnapping around the Lekki axis of Lagos State, attributing the decline to the combined efforts of private security operators and the police in the area.
.
Odofin, Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Eleshin Security Services Limited, ESSL, which secures estates in Lekki axis managed by AIRCOM Estate Managers, spoke while handing over new high-tech security gadgets to men and officers of the firm.
.
He said: "We have not had many incidences of kidnapping, and this is because the security agencies and the police are on top of the situation."
.
The estates include Friends Colony Estate, Milverton Estate, Bourdillion Court Estate and NAPRER Estate. ESSL also provides security for Balcary Estate, among others.
I do not believe any part of Nigeria is free from kidnapping at all...The whole of Nigeria is not safe when it comes to kidnapping.
