The Presidency has taken the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) out of the supervision of the Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development and placed the agency under its direct control.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The decision, approved by President Bola Tinubu on March 5, 2026, was communicated to the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, for immediate implementation on March 11, 2026.
As part of the directive, the Attorney-General of the Federation has been tasked with amending the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau Establishment Act 2022 to reflect the new administrative arrangement. The proposed amendments are to be forwarded to the National Assembly for legislative approval.
The NSIB, established under Act No. 35 of 2022, replaced the former Accident Investigation Bureau (AIB), which previously handled only aviation accident investigations.
Unlike the AIB, the NSIB has a broader mandate, covering accident investigations across multiple modes of transportation, including air, marine, rail, and tracked vehicle systems, making it Nigeria’s only multimodal accident investigation authority.
Following the NSIB’s removal from its supervision, the Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development now oversees five agencies:
-
Nigerian College of Aviation Technology
-
Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority
-
Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria
-
Nigerian Meteorological Agency
-
Nigerian Airspace Management Agency
