Hi everyone,

Our company (PDS) are security and personal protection specialist. Lately there has been a demand for teaching personal safety to people travelling abroad.

We now have programs especially for people who travel over seas. This includes learning important ways of avoiding trouble from pick pocketing, robberies, abduction, kidnap and also how to deal with these threats should avoidance fail.

This will involve learning how to deal with the threat both physically and mentally.

Also we will use our experiences from the military and specialist security sector.

We also cover, dealing with a terrorist incident and advanced first aid.

The training is a mixture of class room work and conducting realistic training through high pressured scenarios.

We also cover self defence techniques which are simple to learn and very effective. The training will develop your awareness to a VERY high level.

If this type of training is of interest then feel free to message me for further details.

Warmest wishes

Keith

Can you teach me an effective technique for getting rid of the ladies who sometimes hang around the Lagos Sheraton bar? One of them even slipped into the lift behind me one night and got as far as my floor before I realised what she was doing.

Best advice I can give for Lagos is not to believe any stranger who calls your room at 06:00 on your first morning and tells you that there’s been a change of arrangement and his driver will be picking you up at 07:00. This scam can only work with the connivance of the hotel switchboard operator.

ROTFL, I first stayed in the Lagos Sheraton in 1987 and this was happening then. They also used to get on the bedroom corridors and if you were daft enough to open the door to a knock a foot would be in the door that was very difficult to get out again.

I can remember when I arrived for the first time being told by one of our local staff: ‘you are going to the Sheraton, it’s not like any other Sheraton you may have been to, you will be continually approached by prostitutes, if you use them you stand a high risk of getting HIV.’

The world may have changed but the Lagos Sheraton seems to be the same! Fortuately it’s been off my routes for 20+ years, you have my sympathy!
