Reality TV sensation Tochi Okechukwu, widely recognized by his mononym Tochi, has publicly criticized the Federal Government’s controversial choice to name Fuji maestro Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (KWAM 1) as an aviation security ambassador.
Through a since-disappeared Instagram story, the celebrity used the platform to draw attention to what he sees as systemic injustice, pondering how many wrongful convictions occurred before social media scrutiny became a factor.
According to Naija News sources, the entertainer expressed dismay at the appointment, particularly given the musician’s alleged involvement in a flight disruption incident months prior.
Tochi framed the government’s decision as indicative of declining accountability in public service.
His scathing commentary included: “This airline debacle makes you wonder – how many innocent souls were railroaded into cells when their stories never went viral?”
“Someone blocks an aircraft’s departure and gets rewarded with a security ambassadorship? Even by our standards, this is rock bottom,” he continued.
The backlash follows federal authorities shortening KWAM 1’s initial half-year flight prohibition to just one month.
In a parallel development, aviation regulators revealed intentions to collaborate with the musician on improving passenger safety awareness campaigns.
