IF THERE WERE NO SECURITY CAMERAS IN EXISTENCE, WILL BIG BROTHER NAIJA EXIST?
Last Sunday was mind-blowing for everyone who has followed the Big brother Naija season6 both on TV and on their mobile phones, as White Money was announced the winner. Personally, I was happy about the wins but something spontaneously crossed my mind in the midst of the jollification,
What if there were no CCTV Cameras in existence will there be anything like big brother Naija, I don’t think so because the only thing that can capture 22 housemates live in a large house, with different rooms, and around the clock, coverage is a CCTV Camera.
A security camera, commonly known as CCTV (Closed Circuit Television), provides peace of mind by giving the idea that an extra pair of eyes is always there. CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) has been more popular in recent years, and it is no longer just a security element, but also a sought-after necessity among local houses of all sizes and types.

The following are some of the prerequisites, however, they are not exhaustive:
- Keeping an eye on unwelcome visitors scanning around your property
- Keeping your premises and loved ones safe at all times
- Screening movement in a specific high-risk region
- Preventing shoplifting
- Monitoring vandalism
Installing a trustworthy CCTV Camera is a practical step because a security kit provides you with a preemptive advantage when it comes to safety. Such equipment is essential whether you own a business or simply want to keep your family safe. However, it is not only necessary to install a CCTV camera; you must also guarantee that it is a device that is both reliable and high-quality. It must also be well maintained through regular inspections and maintenance.
COMPONENTS OF A CCTV SYSTEM?
A traditional CCTV system comprises of the camera, or multiple cameras if necessary, the power supply, and the DVR (Digital Video Recorder) (DVR). The camera is at the center of the system, constantly keeping an eye on things. In addition, to store the video data, a DVR is necessary. The DVR’s job is to simply record the video so that you may watch it whenever you want. The DVR’s software makes viewing the video recording simple, prompting for a username and password before granting access. DVRs are often offered in four, eight, or sixteen channels, with the number indicating the maximum number of cameras that each DVR can handle.
Finally, the power supply is used to electrically power the system and ensure proper operation.
The system’s wiring is also rather basic. The image is transferred to the DVR through a coaxial wire identical to that used for TV transmissions, and a two-core power cable from the power supply unit is also carried through to power up the device. DVRs are typically connected to a TV set via a dedicated monitor or to a TV set via a dedicated channel for CCTV viewing. For portability, video snippets can be extracted onto CDs, DVDs, or USB storage devices.
