“He has never been a king over me, he is rude” – Obesere reveals rift with KWAM 1

Popular Fuji artiste, Alhaji Abass Akande Obesere, has finally opened up on the reasons why he and another A-list Fuji star, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall (KWAM 1), do not see eye to eye.

Obesere noted that from the time Alhaji Sikiru Ayinde Barrister passed on, KWAM 1, announced himself as the new king of Fuji, a move that did not sit well with him.

“After the death of Alhaji Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, K1 started parading himself as the new king of Fuji. He can’t be the new King when General Kollington Ayinla is still alive. That is rude! Ayinla has been playing music long before all of us, that makes him our father. Even after Ayinla’s death, K1 will still not have the right to call himself the leader of fuji musicians,” he said.

“He has never been a king over me. He is the Lord of his own music. He is rude to even the elderly ones and that is why someone like me will never agree with him on anything. This type of bad attitude of his is what has made me not to respect him. I am the type of person who will always voice out when I am not cool with something.

Obesere also revealed the new tactics KWAM 1 employs, to give observers the impression that all is well between them.

“Even K1 himself knows I don’t take shit from anyone,” he continued. “He tries to sing about me, say good things about me whenever we are together in public, all to let people think all is well between us and to curry my good side. But we both know that is all camouflage. K1 doesn’t like anyone who is making progress. He’s a snob. He doesn’t have a good character. Because of him, I want to change my kind of music from Fuji. I give respect to only those who deserve it.”
