The National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) located in Kuru, Jos, has officially rejected claims suggesting a security compromise occurred after gunfire was heard in the vicinity on Sunday night. The organization confirmed that all personnel, participants, and infrastructure are completely secure.
Dr. Osime Samuel, the Head of the Public Affairs Department, released a formal statement on Monday characterizing the circulating reports as false. He emphasized that the institute’s perimeter remains intact and that the rumors being spread through social media and various news platforms do not reflect the truth.
Security forces continue to monitor the area effectively, and the management is actively collaborating with law enforcement to uphold robust safety standards. Daily operations, including academic and administrative functions, are proceeding as scheduled. The institute has requested that the public ignore unconfirmed reports, reaffirming that the protection of everyone on site is their primary objective.
