The National President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to pardon Fuji music legend, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, widely called Kwam 1, over alleged breaches of aviation rules and disruption of airline operations.

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) accused the 68-year-old singer of bringing alcohol on board ValueJet Airlines’ morning flight VK 201 to Lagos, a practice prohibited on domestic flights.

This reportedly led to an altercation with a flight attendant.

According to FAAN’s spokesperson, Obiageli Orah, “Kwam 1 was said to have allegedly brought alcohol on board, a practice prohibited on domestic flights in Nigeria. This led to an altercation with a flight attendant.”

Following the incident, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, placed Kwam 1 on a six-month no-fly list for both domestic and international flights pending investigation.

In a statement on his Instagram page on Monday, MC Oluomo said, “To His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I, Alhaji Musiliu Ayinde Akinsanya, President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers of Nigeria (NURTW), humbly and fervently appeal to you to exercise mercy and forgiveness towards Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (K1). Like a prodigal son, K1 has acknowledged his mistakes, is sincerely apologetic, and is willing to make amends.

“I respectfully and earnestly request that the Director-General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Capt. Chris Najomo, and the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Barrister Festus Keyamo, SAN, consider tempering justice with mercy by lifting the ban imposed on K1 and the pilot, Oluranti Ogoyi, following the incident at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport’s local wing in Abuja.”
