The Federal Government has announced plans to engage Fuji musician, KWAM 1, as an ambassador for proper airport security protocol following his recent controversial conduct at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja

The announcement was made on Wednesday by the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, who outlined measures addressing recent cases of unruly behaviour at Nigerian airports.
Keyamo stated that the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) had agreed to reduce KWAM 1’s flight ban from six months to one month. He added that the musician would collaborate with authorities to raise awareness on acceptable conduct within the aviation sector, with the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) leading the engagement process.
“The NCAA is to reduce his flight ban to a one-month period. FAAN will also work with the music star with a view to engaging him as an ambassador for proper airport security protocol going forward. Having publicly demonstrated penitence, the NCAA is also to withdraw its criminal complaints against KWAM 1 earlier lodged with the police,” the statement read.
The minister explained that the decision followed appeals from well-meaning Nigerians and KWAM 1’s public apology over the August 5 incident, during which he allegedly obstructed a ValueJet aircraft’s movement. KWAM 1 had insisted that the flask he carried contained water for medical reasons, not alcohol, contrary to claims by security personnel.
Keyamo emphasised that the clemency was granted on “compassionate grounds” but warned that the government remains committed to enforcing aviation safety and security laws.
The engagement of KWAM 1 as an ambassador marks a shift toward using public figures to promote awareness and adherence to airport security protocols nationwide.

That’s another punishment on its own. Well done Keyamo
Would Comfort also be made an ambassador for women’s rights, worker’s rights and the face of Ibom air?
