DIRECT INTERVIEW

 

1. Security Officer and some Staff of the Company                                   

 

According to the Security Officer and other Staff of the Company, the Managing Director traveled to India and that he will not be in Nigeria until two weeks time.

 

All efforts to get information on the company operation/activities proved abortive, as the security officer and some of the staff held on to the fact that their boss was not around and by that cannot give any information out.

 

After a lot of explanation and it appears they were still rigid about giving out information, the questionnaire, cover letter as well as our company complementary card was given to the security personnel to forward same to his boss on arrival in Nigeria, who will in turn get back to our office.

 

When further information is provided by the company, this report will be updated.
