“Insecurity in Nigeria has become a major concern for citizens as well as the international community. In the last few years, the country has battled with all forms of insecurity.

“Insecurity has affected economic growth by drying out investments, increasing unemployment and dwindling government revenue, amongst others.

“There is need to identify and encourage individuals who through their relentless and engagements with relevant stakeholders make the country enjoy relative peace, hence this event,” he said.

Ali noted that the Security Excellence Award represents one of the biggest single networking opportunities for serious players in the security sector.

He added that the institute is accredited by National Board for Technical Education and listed by Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB.
