Scandal: KWAM 1, Olori Badirat Deny Infidelity Accusation, Set For Legal Redress

By Akinwale Kasali

Fuji Maestro, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall and Olori Badirat Adeyemi, Ninth Wife of Alaafin of Oyo, HRH Lamidi Adeyemi, who were alleged to be having a secret affair have broken their silence on the story which has made headlines.

Both had been mute since the allegation went viral over 24 hours ago, even after the Wife of the respected Monarch, Iku Baba Yeye was sent packing, But the celebrated Fuji legend says the allegation  was a plot by mischief makers to soil his name.

Kunle Rasheed, Media Adviser to KWAM 1, in a statement said that, “The attention of Fuji Maestro and Mayegun of Yorubaland, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, K1 De Ultimate, has been drawn to the rumour making the rounds in the past 48 hours, on social media platforms, where it has been alleged that the music icon was having an affair with Olori Ajoke, one of the wives of Alayeluwa, the Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III.

“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 the 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 assured that we will legally seek redress for this allegation”, he concluded.

In the same vein, Olori Badirat has also exonerated herself of the accusation just like KWAM 1.

In her response on her Instagram page, she said, “I was hearing of a woman, Esther Aboderin a.k.a. Esabod, for the first time when a friend sent me the clip from UK. When I got the clip, I went through all her past posts and discovered that it was her stock-in-trade to scandalize persons.

“This is a scandal, but she doesn’t know me. Why is she after me? I’m not dating Wasiu. If I’m dating Wasiu, all the deities in Alaafin’s palace should punish me; the spirits of the past Alaafins and Oloris should reward me accordingly…”, she swore.

The Alaafin is yet to comment on this issue through his media aides.
