Independent investigations into aviation, maritime & railway occurrences — uncovering what happened, preventing what comes next.
Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau Units
Fact-Finding,
Not Fault-Finding
The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) is an independent agency of the Federal Government of Nigeria, legally mandated to investigate transportation accidents and serious incidents.
Our objective is not to apportion blame or liability, but to determine the circumstances and causes behind transportation accidents, with the sole purpose of making robust safety recommendations that prevent a recurrence.
NSIB Act
A World-Class Safety Investigation Agency
To be a world-class safety investigation agency committed to preventing transportation accidents and incidents in Nigeria through independent, objective, and thorough investigations that produce robust safety recommendations.
Safety Through Independence & Integrity
To conduct independent, objective, and thorough investigations into transportation accidents and serious incidents in Nigeria, producing safety recommendations that address systemic deficiencies and prevent future occurrences across aviation, maritime, and railway sectors.
Capt. Alex Badeh Jr.
Director General / CEOFrom The Office Of The Director General
We will harness the power of data, technology, and human ingenuity to build a future where every journey is undertaken with peace of mind, every mile traversed with the assurance of a safe return.
Capt. Badeh's administration's key pillars are steadfast commitment to excellence, inter-agency and inter-sector collaboration, utmost transparency and accountability, and promotion of safety awareness, sensitisation and education.
“Under my watch, the NSIB will become a partner, educator, and advocate for transport safety. We will engage every stakeholder, from pilots in the cockpit to mechanics in the workshop, from policymakers in the Federal Capital Territory to passengers at the bus stations. Together, we will transform Nigeria into a land where every journey is safe, every landing is a celebration.”
“Let Us Make Safety Not Just A Slogan, But A Way Of Life…”
— Capt. Alex Badeh Jr., Director General
