The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau plans to release its final report on the tragic road accident involving former world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua within the next 30 to 60 days, according to Director-General Alex Badeh Jr. The bureau completed its investigation and shared its findings with relevant stakeholders, as required by law.
Badeh stated that the report on Joshua's accident would be made public in the upcoming month. However, he revealed that the bureau did not receive the level of cooperation from the Nigeria Police that they had anticipated, despite some assistance being provided. The police claim to hold statutory authority for investigating road traffic accidents, leading to disagreements with the Federal Road Safety Corps.
Badeh emphasized that the NSIB's approach focuses on preventing future accidents rather than assigning blame. The accident occurred on December 29, 2025, in the Makun area of Ogun State, resulting in the deaths of two team members and minor injuries to Joshua. The bureau is still awaiting funding from various transport sector agencies, with the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria meeting its obligations.
