Hey all- looking for advice on securing this Newell post. I have tried driving nails/screws through it to no avail and do not have access to the floor joists underneath. Is it better off replacing the post? Here’s a link to the video and I appreciate all the help.

Shaker hole caps can be found in craft stores and are good for capping hole drilled for adding screws, There is a stud right behind the post in the wall you can screw into and a couple screws into the floor framing below is good.
