Security operatives repulse a suspected attempt to breach the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) in Kuru, Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State. Reports say the incident occurs in the early hours, with one account placing it around 1:30 a.m., when personnel on duty detect suspicious movement near the institute’s perimeter. The operatives respond quickly, and in some accounts the suspected intruders flee into nearby vegetation after failing to gain access. Other reports say a gun battle follows and one suspected attacker is killed during the exchange of gunfire, with the attempt repelled. Following the incident, security presence is reinforced around NIPSS and surveillance and area patrols are intensified to prevent further attempts. Several sources also refer to recent history at the institute, noting that an earlier attack about two weeks earlier involved fatalities among security personnel. The current incident remains under investigation, and authorities continue efforts to identify and apprehend those behind the attempted breach.
