Archos,

Is that a spot of wishful thinking?

Sasless:

Don’t think Bristow will change many things on the security front because that would cost them money; we are not talking about bullet proof curtains this time.
Was there not a robbery at a Lagos Chinese restaurant where some of the Bristow big cheeses were dining a good few years ago and nothing was done afterwards to improve security? Also did robbers not get into a neighbouring compound via the BRC and the Bristow security slept thru this all?
If Bristow was to be serious about their employees security in Nigeria they would use armed escorts, get proper 4*4 transport vehicles (ex USA embassy vehicles would be great like Chucks suggested before, not clapped out Peugeots).

Greetings

Johan
