How Fuji Musician, Wasiu Ayinde Spilled Alcohol On Pilot, Security Officer At Abuja Airport – FAAN
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) says popular Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (KWAM 1), violated aviation regulations by trying to take an alcoholic drink into a commercial airline and disrupting the airline’s operations.

In a statement on Wednesday, FAAN said its preliminary investigations of the incident that happened on Tuesday “confirmed that the passenger was scheduled to board the morning flight to Lagos operated by ValueJet Airlines (Flight VK 201).

“During boarding, the passenger attempted to carry an unidentified liquid substance on board despite repeated warnings from Aviation Security (AVSEC) personnel and the Flight Captain.”

The aviation authority said the airline’s efforts to get KWAM 1 to drop the alcoholic drink before boarding the flight to Lagos failed.

“As boarding continued, an airline security officer asked the passenger to step aside for further clarification.

“The passenger allegedly refused and spilled the contents of the flask on the officer, which turned out to be alcohol.

“The Flight Captain intervened but faced similar resistance,” FAAN said in the statement by its spokesperson, Obiageli Orah.

KWAM I is one of Nigeria’s most influential musicians and is a personal friend of President Bola Tinubu.

“This matter remains under thorough investigation, and all parties found culpable will be held accountable according to the law,” FAAN said.

The full statement as issued by FAAN :
“The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) wishes to formally address the incident that occurred on Tuesday, 5th August 2025, at the domestic terminal of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

“The incident involved a notable Nigerian musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (also known as K1 De Ultimate), and a pilot of ValueJet Airlines.

“Preliminary investigations confirmed that the passenger was scheduled to board the morning flight to Lagos operated by ValueJet Airlines (Flight VK 201).

“During boarding, the passenger attempted to carry an unidentified liquid substance on board despite repeated warnings from Aviation Security (AVSEC) personnel and the Flight Captain.

“In accordance with international aviation security standards—specifically, Nigeria’s National Civil Aviation Security Programme (NCASP) and ICAO Annex 17—liquids exceeding 100ml are not permitted through security screening unless medically necessary and properly declared.

“The passenger was informed of this regulation but reportedly declined to comply.

“As boarding continued, an airline security officer asked the passenger to step aside for further clarification.

“The passenger allegedly refused and spilled the contents of the flask on the officer, which turned out to be alcohol.

“The Flight Captain intervened but faced similar resistance.

“After confirming that boarding was complete, she instructed the closure of the aircraft door.

“At this juncture, the passenger moved to the front of the aircraft and refused to leave the area despite repeated requests.

“He was ultimately escorted away by AVSEC crime unit for further investigation, after which he was released.

“FAAN reiterates its unwavering commitment to the safety and security of all passengers, crew, and airport personnel.

“The Authority will not tolerate any actions that compromise operational integrity or undermine aviation safety standards, regardless of the individuals involved.

“This matter remains under thorough investigation, and all parties found culpable will be held accountable according to the law.

“FAAN is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of professionalism, safety, and regulatory compliance across all Nigerian airports.”
