The Federal Government on Tuesday inaugurated the eight-man board of the National Institute for Security with a former Director General of the Department of State Services, Afakriya Gadzama, as the chairman.
Other members of the board are Sanusi Galadima, Mrs Amina Shamaki, Mrs Folasade Adekayaoja, S. Aimeyeofori, Maj Gen B.M. Shafa, A.S Adeleke and Nuhu Umar.
While inaugurating the board in Abuja, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, said the institute would among other functions be the leading centre for the provision of competence and enhanced training for middle and top-level managers of security in order to advance best practices in conflict prevention, mitigation and resolution.
He said the inauguration of the NIS board could not have come at a better time than now when security had become a major issue for national discourse.
