As the National Industrial Safety Council of Nigeria (NISCN) prepares for its crucial presidential election on February 24, 2025, one name stands out among the contenders—Engr. John Obajinmi, FIMS. With a vision deeply rooted in transformative ideas, sectoral safety reforms, and global compliance, Obajinmi presents a compelling case as the best candidate to lead NISCN into a new era of industrial safety excellence.
A Proven Leader with a Clear Agenda
Obajinmi’s agenda for NISCN is both ambitious and pragmatic, focusing on increasing the visibility of the council, fostering unity among stakeholders, and implementing sector-specific safety templates. His commitment to innovation and collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment (FMLE) underscores his readiness to reposition NISCN as a key player in Nigeria’s industrial landscape.
Championing International Best Practices
As a firm advocate of global safety standards, Obajinmi’s pledge to support International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions is a game-changer. His expertise and experience in safety management, coupled with his membership in professional safety institutions, position him as the right leader to align Nigeria’s safety policies with global best practices.
A Call for Progressive Leadership
With industrial safety becoming a critical issue in Nigeria, the election of the NISCN president is more than a leadership transition—it is a defining moment for the future of workplace safety. Engr. John Obajinmi embodies the qualities needed to drive change: experience, vision, and an unwavering commitment to safer working environments.
As NISCN members head to the polls, the choice is clear—Obajinmi is not just a candidate; he is the leader NISCN needs to champion safety, innovation, and progress.
