The immediate past Director-General of the Nigerians Safety Investigation Bureau, NSIB, Akin Olateru, says he lost his marriage for doing his job.
Olateru, who made this revelation on Monday during a short hand-over ceremony to the new DG, Mr Alex Badeh, Jnr, said that the job was very tough, adding that he did not envy the new person taking over from him.
Olateru was appointed in January 2017 as Commissioner of the defunct Accident Investigation Bureau, AIB, which has changed into NSIB with an expanded mandate to investigate air, rail, maritime and land transport accidents.
President Bola Tinubu sacked him last week and immediately appointed Badeh as his replacement.
Speaking at the hand-over ceremony, Olateru, who said he was leaving NSIB better than he met it, said the sacrifices he made on the job cost him his marriage.
