Moment KWAM 1 nearly knocked down by ValueJet pilots in Abuja airport (video)

Veteran Fuji musician King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as KWAM 1, was nearly hit by a ValueJet aircraft on Wednesday morning at the Abuja airport in a dramatic incident that has sparked widespread concern.

According to eyewitness accounts, the singer was scheduled to board a ValueJet flight from Abuja to Lagos but was reportedly deboarded by the flight crew for allegedly violating aviation regulations. The nature of the violation has not been officially disclosed.

Enraged by the development, KWAM 1 allegedly stormed onto the tarmac and attempted to stop the aircraft from taking off by standing in front of it.

In a now-viral video circulating on social media, the Fuji icon can be seen confronting ground staff as the aircraft begins to taxi. The footage shows a tense moment where the plane moves dangerously close to KWAM 1, narrowly avoiding a collision.

Aviation experts and social media users have raised questions about how the incident was allowed to escalate to that point, with some accusing the airline of endangering lives by proceeding with the take-off process despite the presence of a pedestrian on the runway.

ValueJet and airport authorities are yet to issue an official statement as of press time.
