The federal government, through the National Atomic Energy Commission , has underscored the need to ensure the reduction of insider abuse of its nuclear assets, saying that aside the deployment of physical protection like the use of security forces, persons manning the facilities were even more critical to their safety.

Represented by the Director, Nuclear Technology Centre , Hamman Tukur, Ahmed stated that it was essential to ensure the protection of workers, people and environment wherever nuclear facilities are operated in the country. To guarantee the entrenchment of this goal, he noted that several nuclear security summits had been held globally with far-reaching decisions made via international legal instruments that are binding on all nations, thereby entwining it with national security issues.

“Nuclear security is a governance regime that proactively seeks to ensure the prevention, detection and response to theft or any intentional or malicious act on nuclear materials and associated facilities.”
