President Tinubu Approves New Police Academy Campus in Ogun State, Releases N15 Billion Take-Off Grant President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the establishment of a new campus of the Nigeria Police Academy in Erinja, Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State. In a statement issued on Monday by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, the President also approved a special take-off grant of N15 billion for the new campus. The approval is in line with the provisions of the Nigeria Police Academy (Establishment) Act, 2021, which allows for the expansion of the main academy in Wudil, Kano State, into multiple campuses across the country. The N15 billion intervention fund will be drawn from the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TetFund) 2026 allocation. It is earmarked for the development of priority infrastructure, academic facilities, student accommodation, and core training assets. The siting of the new campus in Erinja followed the recommendation of a high-level consultative meeting that included the Minister of Police Affairs, the Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, officials of the Federal Ministry of Education, the Inspector-General of Police, and the Executive Secretary of the National Universities Commission (NUC). The meeting took into account student intake capacity, available funding, academic quality assurance, and the growing manpower needs of the Nigerian Police Force, which is currently intensifying recruitment.
