The Nigeria Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB), has expressed its commitment to strengthening partnerships with key stakeholders to enhance transportation safety across all sectors.
Speaking in Abuja on Wednesday during a courtesy visit by the Abuja Transport and Aviation Correspondents Association (ATACA) executive members, NSIB director general, Captain Alex Badeh Jnr., said there was urgent need for deeper collaboration among industry players to drive meaningful safety improvements.
Captain Badeh commended ATACA’s leadership for fostering engagement and emphasised the critical role of the media in amplifying safety awareness.
He noted that transportation safety should not be the responsibility of regulators alone but a collective effort among policymakers, operators, journalists, and the public.
He called for a unified approach across all modes of transport—aviation, road, rail, and maritime—to create a robust safety culture and prevent accidents.
The NSIB boss stressed that as the bureau’s mandate now extends beyond aviation to include all transportation accidents, there is an even greater need for synergy. He urged continuous dialogue and collaboration, particularly in knowledge-sharing and capacity-building initiatives, to ensure all stakeholders are aligned with global best practices in safety management.
Speaking earlier, ATACA chairman Ejike Ejike reaffirmed the association’s commitment to working closely with NSIB and other stakeholders to enhance public understanding of transportation safety.
He called for regular engagement and strategic collaboration to bridge communication gaps and foster proactive safety measures.
