Nigerian Army have foiled an attack at the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) in Kuru, Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State.
According to a counter-insurgency publication Zagazola Makama, the incident happened at about 1:30 a.m. on Monday.
Troops, alongside other security personnel protecting the institute, noticed the movement of suspected criminals around the facility.
The security team quickly responded, forcing the suspects to abandon their plan and escape into nearby bushes before they could enter the premises.
“According to the sources, the security personnel responded swiftly, forcing the suspected intruders to flee into a nearby thick shrub before they could gain access to the institute,” Makama said.
“The troops immediately conducted a search of the surrounding area where the suspects were last sighted, but no contact was established as the suspects had escaped.
“The sources said security has since been reinforced around the facility, while surveillance and area domination patrols have been intensified to prevent any further attempt to breach the premises.”
The report added that security agencies are closely monitoring the area while efforts continue to identify and arrest those responsible for the failed infiltration.
