Fuji Maestro and Mayegun of Yorubaland, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly hailed as Kwam1 said his attention has been drawn to the rumour making the rounds in the past 48 hours on social media platforms, where it has been alleged that he was having an affair with Olori Ajoke, one of the wives of the Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III.
The position of the Fuji maestro was contained in a statement by his Publicist, Kunle Rasheed, on Thursday.
The statement said: Ordinarily, one would have waved off this allegation as one coming from the warped mind of one possibly numbed by high COVID-19 fever.
“But as known in these parts, a lie repeatedly told, has a way of transmuting to truth.
“Let me categorically state that the rumour is lies concocted from the pit of hell by those whose aim is to drag to the mud, the name of K1 De Ultimate and ultimately that of the most revered kingdom in Yoruba land.
“These agents of Lucifer have continued in their warped delusions to see K1 go to the ground just for being conferred with the title of Mayegun of Yoruba land. The Alaafin’s crime is the conferment of the honour, hence the grim plot to drag him down also. Moreover, the highly respected Monarch and his Olori have both debunked the story as baseless and unfounded.
“For the records, as the Mayegun of Yorubaland, K1 is aware of the customs and traditions of the Yoruba and as such, cannot put the culture and tradition of Yorubaland to disrepute.
“Let me remind the rumour mongers that Nigeria has adequate laws to bring anyone who has embarked on character assassination of the innocent to book. The fans and the general public should be rest assurred that we will legally seek redress for this allegation,” he said.
