Nigerian activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, has raised fresh concerns over the growing rate of insecurity and kidnapping across the country, following an attempted kidnap in Delta State.
In a post shared on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Gwamnishu released CCTV footage showing a failed kidnap attempt at a residence in the Ogwashi-Uku area of Delta State.
According to him, this isn’t the first time the residence has been targeted a similar attack occurred in January.
The video captures the moment the homeowner drove into his compound, quickly exited his car, and rushed into the house.
The suspected kidnappers arrived almost immediately, attempting to break into the house through the windows and other entry points but were ultimately unsuccessful.
Speaking over the footage, Gwamnishu offered advice to Nigerians on how to stay safe from such threats.
He said: “If you’re going to your house, call someone at home to stand at the gate. So, immediately you arrive, you drive in and lock the gate, no delays.”
“You need to observe carefully, and again, install a 360-degree camera in your premises. That way, you can monitor your surroundings from your phone before returning home.”
Gwamnishu’s video has since sparked conversations online, with many expressing concern over the increasing insecurity in various parts of the country.
