Organisers have revealed a sneak preview of prominent topics as well as key speakers for this year’s Securex West Africa Conference. This year’s conference theme will be National Security in a Boundaryless World: 21st Century Solutions to Nigeria’s Insecurity.

As Nigeria’s population continues to grow with an estimated population of 450 million by 2050, it is important that all stakeholders, including security, military, political, civil society and more, come together to discuss solutions that will curb current and future threats while ensuring stability in the country.

The exhibitions regional director, George Pearson said; “Every year we consult with leading members of the industry to put together a cohesive programme of conference sessions that will not only inform Securex visitors, but also educate. In the current industry climate, with this transition into a new digital era, companies across the board are facing brand new threats and it is our goal to provide valuable insights into how to protect themselves.”

Just some of the key sessions announced include ‘Implementing 21st Century Security Strategies and Solutions; the place of technology and social media’, ‘Security Sector Reforms and Policies in Nigeria, addressing a boundaryless operating environment’ and ‘Community Cohesion: security as an enabler of/for development; towards solutions for stability’.
