Nigeria’s Minister of State for Defence, Dr Bello Matawalle, and Cameroon’s Defence Logistics Adviser, Brigadier General Robinson Agha, have visited the exhibition booth of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited at the ongoing Africa International Defence Exhibition (AFRIDEX) 2026 in Lagos.
The high-profile visits took place on Day Three of the exhibition, with Tantita’s General Manager, Operations, High Chief Godfrey Pondi, leading the company’s engagement with the visiting defence officials and other international security stakeholders.
During his visit, Brigadier General Agha expressed admiration for Tantita’s technological innovations and critical asset protection solutions, describing the company’s security offerings as impressive and potentially useful to Cameroon.
“What you have here is something we will need. Very impressive. I will take it home,” the Cameroonian defence official remarked.
His comments underscore the potential for knowledge exchange and cross-border security collaboration as African countries explore innovative and technology-driven approaches to tackling emerging security challenges.
In a related development, Tantita’s General Manager, Operations, High Chief Godfrey Pondi, alongside the General Manager, Military Liaison, Brigadier General Efe Edafioghor (Rtd), also visited the Defence Ministries Corporation of Nigeria as part of efforts to strengthen institutional engagement and cooperation between Tantita and the nation’s defence establishment.
Tantita’s participation at AFRIDEX 2026 provides an opportunity for the indigenous security company to showcase its operational capabilities, technological innovations and expertise in the protection of critical national assets.
From the creeks of the Niger Delta to the international defence exhibition platform, Tantita continues to showcase homegrown security solutions and engage with stakeholders on opportunities for broader African and international security cooperation.
