Tantita Security Highlights Untapped Global Opportunities for Nigerian Firms at OTC
Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited has spotlighted the vast and largely untapped global opportunities available to Nigerian companies following its impactful debut at the prestigious Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston, Texas.
Speaking during an interview at the event, Captain Warredi Enisuoh, Executive Director, Operations and Technical at Tantita, reflected on the company’s participation, describing it as a “challenging but eye-opening” experience that revealed how much room there is for indigenous Nigerian solutions on the global stage.
“This is our first time at the OTC, and while it was a huge leap for us, the response we got made it worth every effort. We found ourselves sharing space with world leaders in technology, and to their surprise, a Nigerian firm like ours had something just as powerful to offer.” Enisuoh said.
Tantita’s innovations in tackling oil theft, conducting maritime patrol, deploying airborne surveillance, and managing fisheries drew significant attention from global stakeholders. Enisuoh noted that several international delegates were astonished by the level of technological advancement emanating from Nigeria and expressed interest in bringing Tantita’s solutions to their own countries.
“That’s one of the biggest takeaways for us,” he noted. “The world is open to Nigerian innovation — they just need to see it. OTC gave us that platform.”
Beyond the company’s exposure, the conference also revealed the role OTC can play in connecting Nigerian firms with international partners, investors, and collaborators, particularly in sectors that merge technology with security and environmental sustainability.
Looking ahead, Enisuoh announced that Tantita plans to take even greater advantage of the OTC platform next year by increasing its presence and engaging young Nigerian talents.
“We’re not just coming back — we’re coming back bigger,” he said. “We want to bring along young innovators, environmentalists, and students. This is about building future leaders who can take Nigerian technology to the world.”
Enisuoh, who spent part of the conference mentoring high school students, emphasized the need for young Nigerians to develop a deeper understanding of environmental and ecological systems, especially as the world continues to prioritize sustainable solutions.
“The opportunity is there — in greening the environment, solving real-world challenges, and thinking globally,” he said. “Our youth can lead that charge, and platforms like OTC are the perfect launchpad.”
Tantita’s groundbreaking appearance at OTC underscores a compelling message for Nigeria’s private sector: global markets are ready for indigenous solutions, and events like OTC offer a gateway to seize those opportunities.
