MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR'S DESK
I'm humbled to introduce and welcome you to Legion Security Services Virtual Office.
I'm also using this medium to recall my very humble beginning growing up in Nigeria as an average young man who lived the first 25 years of his life in Nigeria before traveling to the United States where I served honorably in the Navy, received several training, served in the private security industry and also acquired higher education.
Many people have asked me why I'm I establishing a security company in Nigeria knowing the challenges of operating businesses in the country. My response to this question is always swift and simple, why not? I strongly believe that Nigeria's better days are ahead and not behind us. In my opinion, there is absolutely nothing wrong with Nigeria, what is wrong is that we sometimes have leadership deficiency, epidemic of greed, not enough patriotism and lack of will among the people to stand firm together and demand from our leaders what is just. My attitude is that, if Legion Security Services limited could employ just 500 Nigerians; this would amount to 500 less unemployment in the country.
With the challenges of today's security in mind, which are asymmetric in nature and increasingly difficult to predict when, where, and how the next devastating insecurity incidents are going to occur, our organization is uniquely positioned to offer the kinds of strategic and customizable security services to help counter today's threat. Legion Security Services would continuously operate by devising strategic information gathering approach that is key to Detection, Deterrence, Prevention and Protection against threat, vulnerabilities, and risks. Our security operations would employ continuous monitoring of various security related incidents while also employing round the clock situation awareness that would help us harness the kinds of actionable intelligence needed to execute effective security operations. In other words, our organization would operate like no others in Nigeria.
Looking at Nigeria's tempestuous security environment which has turned certain parts of the country into imminent danger zones and continues to threatens daily activities of the people, economic prosperity, tranquility among various ethnic groups and national security in general. Given the ongoing menace, indiscriminate and premeditated terrorist attacks perpetuated by terrorist organization currently operating in Nigeria, it is imperative to counter these vicious acts of violence swiftly and decisively with offensive tactical, operational and strategic levels of military warfare couple with continuous reinforcement of Nigeria's law enforcement agencies.
Legion Security Services is uniquely positioned to assist the Nigerian government in the areas of consultation that emphasizes effective Anti and Counter-Terrorism planning, strategies and enforcement operations.
It is imperative that I emphasize stable, safer and secured environment automatically attracts economic growth and prosperity. For these reasons, I see security not just as a business, but as a fundamental right of every citizen.
Sincerely,
Adewale A. Adetimehin (MD)
