Spearfish Senior Security Advisor visit to Abuja
Darren Kelly, our Senior Security Advisor has been spending this week with our Spearfish West Africa Team.
Good to be back in Abuja visiting the project teams. It's a wonderfully vibrant city with a lot going on and the people are so welcoming and friendly.
A successful 4 days with the client in the run up to the elections in Nigeria. We've spent the time covering contingency planning, medical evacuation and relocation strategies for the various projects operating across the country. In addition we've reviewed journey management procedures and crisis planning. The teams have worked extremely hard and it's been a hugely worthwhile trip to ensure that everything is place and ready to go if required.
