Nigerians Slam Justice System as Oshiomhole, Kwam 1 Escape Punishment, Comfort Faces Court

Nigerians have taken to social media to express outrage over what they call a glaring double standard in the country’s justice system.

Controversial figures Adams Oshiomhole and Fuji musician Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate, have faced no legal consequences for their recent misconduct.

Meanwhile, Comfort Emmanson, a female passenger, was charged to court and remanded at Kirikiri Correctional Centre after allegedly assaulting an Ibom Air crew member.

The disparity sparked fierce debate online. @Omega X D posted, “Adams Oshiomhole & Kwam1 face no consequences. While Comfort goes to court. WHAT A NATION!!!” This tweet quickly went viral, capturing public frustration.

Many Nigerians agreed. @EZEH-EMY described the situation as “the evil justice system in Nigeria.”

However, some users called for accountability regardless of status.

For example, @kelvin_chika wrote, “I believe Comfort should be jailed. There is no excuse to behave like that, and we should not make exceptions. This lady was just not properly brought up.”

Others pointed to privilege and political influence as the root causes of this inequality. @tope_jacob commented, “You don’t become a nuisance if you are not powerfully connected. I don’t support what Kwam and Osho did, but they didn’t get violent or slap staff.

The lady was violent throughout, like she has a powerful ‘sugary daddy.’”

These discussions followed two high-profile incidents that stirred public anger but yielded no official sanctions.

In June, Adams Oshiomhole, former Edo State governor and current APC senator, reportedly disrupted the Zulu Terminal at Lagos’ Murtala Muhammed International Airport.

After arriving late for his Abuja-bound flight, he allegedly confronted airport staff physically and blocked other passengers from boarding.

Similarly, Fuji legend K1 De Ultimate allegedly caused chaos on a ValueJet flight at Abuja airport.

Eyewitnesses claim he poured water on a female pilot and issued threats while boasting of his presidential connections.

Despite widespread criticism, authorities have not arrested or charged either man.

Meanwhile, Comfort Emmanson faces harsh legal consequences for a single assault allegation.

Critics warn this failure to hold influential figures accountable sets a dangerous precedent.

It normalizes lawlessness among the politically connected while ordinary Nigerians face strict enforcement.

This growing frustration demands urgent reforms to restore trust and fairness in Nigeria’s justice system.
