Audu Innocent Ogbeh was a Nigerian farmer, playwright, and politician who served as the minister of agriculture and rural development from 2015 to 2019. He died on Saturday, August 9, 2025. He was chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party from 2001 until January 2005.

Fuji Legend King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate, has apologised over the incident that occurred at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, on the 5th of August 2025.

Following the unruly behavior of a Fuji musician, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde (Kwam1), by blocking a ValueJet plane from taxiing, the Federal Government has placed the musician on a temporary no-fly list pending a full investigation of the incident.

The decision of the Federal Government was announced in a statement by the Minister of Aviation, Mr. Festus Keyamo (SAN).

The statement is reproduced hereunder:

THE INCIDENT INVOLVING VALUJET AND KWAM 

…FESTUS KEYAMO (SAN)

1:

I have received reports from all the relevant aviation agencies regarding the altercation between the staff and crew of ValueJet and Kwam 1 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, on Tuesday, August 5, 2025. I have also received video footage of the incident. 

From all the details so far received, my preliminary impression is that it was obviously a case of temporary loss of sanity and control on both sides, which could have led to serious fatalities.

Contrary to what the agents of Kwam 1 have said, he CONSTANTLY moved his position on the tarmac to ACTUALLY BLOCK the aircraft from taxiing to take position on the runway for takeoff. This is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE behavior. The issue of whether he was carrying water or alcohol is not even an issue at this point. It is the physical blockage of the aircraft from taxiing that is the reprehensible conduct here, which is akin to a hostage situation. The actual video footage showing this recalcitrant behavior is hereby attached. 

On the other hand, NO AMOUNT of provocation should make the captain and pilot of an aircraft begin to taxi without ensuring that the security personnel have safely moved away an unruly passenger that is standing in front of an aircraft. 

Both sides breached standard SAFETY PROTOCOL as required by the INTERNATIONAL CIVIL AVIATION ORGANIZATION (ICAO). 

I have noted that the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has temporarily suspended the license of the captain and the pilot pending full investigation. I commend them for their proactive action. However, I have also questioned their sense of justice in only acting against one party and not the other party. What applies to the goose must also apply to the gander. That is one of the tenets of justice I have preached all my life. I will not sit idly by and allow this to pass. 

IN THE CIRCUMSTANCE, I HAVE ALSO DIRECTED THE NCAA TO PLACE KWAM 1 ON A NO-FLY LIST PENDING FURTHER AND FULL INVESTIGATION, JUST LIKE THE CAPTAIN AND PILOT. ALL AIRLINES, both domestic and international, should IMMEDIATELY be informed of this directive, and anyone who flouts this directive risks withdrawal of their operating license.
