In a significant engagement at the State House on Wednesday, 10th December 2025, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria issued a clear and urgent call to the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) and the Alumni Association of the National Institute (AANI).
The President emphasized that Nigeria is at a critical juncture, one that demands fresh strategic thinking and innovative, homegrown solutions to the worsening insecurity across the nation. From escalating kidnapping incidents to the persistent threats of banditry, the nation is grappling with evolving security challenges that require coordinated, expert-driven policy intervention.
At the heart of his message was a strong appeal: Nigeria is looking to NIPSS and AANI for leadership, direction, and actionable strategies.
In immediate response, AANI announced that it will mobilize its network of security experts, policy analysts, and scholars to begin crafting clear and implementable recommendations for the Federal Government. This aligns with AANI’s long-standing commitment to national development and strategic leadership.
Members are advised to watch for further communication as this national assignment advances.
