In a dramatic turn of events, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has placed legendary Fuji musician, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as KWAM 1, on a no-fly list following reports of disruptive behavior at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.
According to multiple sources, KWAM 1 allegedly exhibited unruly conduct while attempting to board a flight with ValueJet Airlines on Monday, August 5, 2025. The incident drew the attention of airport authorities and led to swift action from the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, who ordered the NCAA to begin immediate investigations and place a flying restriction on the artist.
While some reports suggest a possible six-month flying ban, the NCAA has yet to release an official timeline. For now, the order effectively bars KWAM 1 from boarding any commercial flight within Nigerian airspace pending the outcome of investigations.
🚨 Keyamo Issues Warning to Airlines
In a stern statement, Minister Keyamo warned that any airline that violates the no-fly directive by allowing KWAM 1 on board risks losing its operating license. This underscores the federal government’s zero-tolerance stance on any action that endangers air travel safety or disrupts airport operations.
🎤 KWAM 1 Yet to Comment
As of now, the artist and his team have not issued any public statement regarding the incident. Fans and industry insiders await further clarification from both KWAM 1 and the NCAA.
