The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has imposed a six-month flight ban on renowned Fuji musician King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as KWAM 1 or K1 De Ultimate, over what it described as unruly and disruptive behavior at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.
Announcing the decision during a press briefing on Thursday, Michael Achimugu, NCAA’s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, said the disciplinary action was taken in line with civil aviation regulations to uphold decorum and protect airport personnel.
The act was described as harassment and a breach of aviation conduct.The NCAA said KWAM 1 will be prohibited from flying on any domestic airline within Nigeria for the next six months, a move many view as a strong message against VIP misconduct at airports.
