Davido’s crew member who beat up airport officials was a U.S soldier

Earlier last week, there were reports of Umarudeen Kayode a member of Singer Davido’s crew, beating up airport officials after an argument on verification of luggage went sour at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport on January 11th.

However new details Davido’s crew member,  Kayode aka Tyconne has emerged and here are they;

1. He’s a former US Soldier. – which explains why he was able to beat up the airport officials (Single Handedly) who allegedly couldn’t subdue him easily.

2. He served in war torn Afghanistan for a full year after volunteering…This was between 2015 – 2016.

Kayode who punched a Checkpoint staff on the face, resisted arrest and pummeled another airport security staff, injuring an Assistant Customs Comptroller in the process, on January 12th, was granted bail after he was arraigned before an Ikeja Magistrate court and charged for assault, breach of public peace and resisting arrest.

The assault incident occurred when officials of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Aviation Security (AVSEC), a department under the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) and a staff of Checkport over an attempt to check the tags on the checked luggage of Davido on an Emirates flight.

It was gathered that Davido who had arrived the country through an Emirates flight around 5 pm, had 17 checked luggage, which the aides refused to allow the officials of the Checkport verify with the attached tags.

When he seemed uncontrollable, the security officials mobilized and forced the Davido’s crew member to a restricted area within the terminal known as “tango city.” Tango City is a place where touts and unruly persons are detained within the terminal before being transferred to a police station for further a possible interrogation and possible prosecution.

At Tango City, the aide allegedly continued his attacks on security officials by hitting a female AVSEC official who was taking notes of the incident in the tummy and later pushed another Customs personnel who landed awkwardly and cut his wrist in the industrial fan in the area.
