The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) has confirmed that two Air Peace pilots tested positive for alcohol and cannabis following a runway excursion at Port Harcourt International Airport on July 13, 2025.

A preliminary accident report, signed by the NSIB’s Director of Public Affairs and Family Assistance, Mrs. Bimbo Olawumi Oladeji, revealed that the Boeing 737 aircraft, operating a scheduled domestic flight from Lagos to Port Harcourt with 103 people on board, veered off Runway 21 after landing from an unstabilised approach.

The plane touched down 2,264 metres beyond the runway threshold and came to a stop 209 metres into the clearway.

However, no injuries or structural damage were reported, but the NSIB has launched a full investigation into the incident due to its serious safety implications.

The report said, “The most concerning findings came from toxicological tests, which revealed that both the Captain and First Officer had recently consumed alcohol, with post-incident screening showing positive results for Ethyl Glucuronide—a metabolic marker indicating recent alcohol intake.

“Additionally, a cabin crew member tested positive for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component in cannabis.

“These results are being reviewed under the human performance and safety management components of the investigation.”

Oladeji stated that the presence of intoxicants among flight crew poses a significant threat to aviation safety.

In response, the bureau has issued immediate safety recommendations to Air Peace, including strengthening crew resource management training, particularly in recognising and responding to unstabilised approaches.

It said, “Reinforcing internal procedures for crew fitness-for-duty checks prior to flight dispatch.

“An aircraft incursion is defined as the unauthorised or incorrect presence of an aircraft on the runway, and can result from a variety of factors. With this latest revelation, crew intoxication has been added to the list of potential causes, alongside equipment failures, miscommunication, and environmental conditions.”
