Tochi Okechukwu has slammed the appointment of KWAM 1 as an aviation security ambassador.
He called it a “new low,” citing the musician’s recent airport rule violation.
Reality TV star Tochi Okechukwu, popularly known as Tochi, has criticized the Federal Government for appointing Fuji legend Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, also called K1 De Ultimate or KWAM 1, as an aviation security ambassador.
Reacting via his Instagram story, Tochi questioned the decision, using it as an example of how some people may have been wrongly jailed or persecuted in the past simply because their cases did not get public attention.
“From this airline situation, just imagine the number of people that have been wrongly jailed or persecuted just because social media didn’t carry their story.. just imagine,” he wrote.
He went on to express disbelief that “an ordinary civilian prevented a whole plane from taking off and you guys made him aviation security ambassador,” adding that such a move was “a new low even for us.”
His remarks follow the government’s decision to reduce KWAM 1’s flight ban from six months to one month. The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) also announced that the musician would work with the agency to promote proper security procedures at airports.
