The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) says King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, the Fuji musician popularly referred to as KWAM 1, will be blacklisted for six months for his conduct at the domestic terminal of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja; involving a ValueJet plane.
NCAA’s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Michael Achimugu, stated this during an on-going press briefing on Thursday.
Speaking further, Achimugu assured that all parties and personnel involved in the matter will be brought to book if found wanting in their conduct; “what I must assure the general public is that everybody involved in this will be brought to book”.
“Aviation rules are made for everybody, for the protection of everybody. These rules are global. There is nothing about the rules that is to antagonise any passenger.
“So, we will do everything we can to get to the root of it. Everybody who needs to be punished or sanctioned will receive justice.”
Achimugu added that the NCAA is going to formally request the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Inspector General of Police to commence prosecution formalities against KWAM 1.
“President Tinubu, as well as Festus Keyamo, minister of aviation and aerospace development, are committed to the rule of law, and no individual, regardless of status; is exempt from due process”.
