‘We’ll meet in court’ Prominent chief spits fire over alleged love affair with queen

In an ongoing fracas in the media over the rumours of infidelity leveled against the popular music artiste, Wasiu Ayinde, the Maiyegun of Yorubaland claimed he is ready for a show-down with talebearers.

Recall that a Dublin based vblogger, Esther Aboderin, popularly called Esabod, in a viral votenote had alleged that Olori Ajoke Adeyemi had an affair with Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, fondly called K1.

According to a press statement signed by his media adviser, Kunle Rasheed, there was no iota of truth in the rumour.

“The attention of Fuji Maestro and Maiyegun 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.

Rasheed claimed the rumour would have been left unanswered but due to the personalities involved, it couldn’t be left unattended to.

“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 a lie 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 Maiyegun 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.

As a well-cultured Yoruba man, Rasheed stated that his principal wouldn’t have trampled upon the tradition and culture of the race under whatever guise.

“For the record, as the Maiyegun of Yorubaland, K1 is aware of the customs and traditions of the Yoruba and as such, can not put the culture and tradition of the Yorubaland to disrepute,” he said.

K1, however, threatened to engage legal route to ensure such unwarranted rumour.

“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,” Kunle Rasheed concluded.
