President Bola Tinubu on Friday directed the immediate and permanent reinforcement of security at the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru, Plateau State, following a recent attack on the perimeter of the institute by bandits.

He said the incident has strengthened the resolve of the Federal Government to protect national institutions, support security personnel, and ensure that future attacks do not find the country unprepared.

Speaking while addressing participants of Senior Executive Course 48, 2026, at NIPSS, the president, who was represented by Vice-President Kashim Shettima, conveyed the condolences of the Federal Government to families of two soldiers and one policeman who lost their lives during the attack.
