The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun has ordered the investigation over an alleged incident involving singer Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (popularly known as KWAM 1) at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja on August 5.
The Nigeria Police Force stated this after receiving an official petition from the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).

In a statement released this evening August 12, the spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force, DCP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, has directed the Commissioner of Police, Airport Command, to immediately commence a thorough investigation into the matter, to unravel the circumstances which led to the ugly incident and ensure justice is served accordingly.
