K1 De Ultimate Stands Firm Amid Calls For Apology Over Controversial Remark

Popular Fuji musician King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, known as K1 De Ultimate, has refused to apologize to Islamic clerics (Alfas) over a controversial remark he made during his late mother’s Fidau prayer, which many found offensive.

In a video circulating online, K1 was heard using the term Ganusi while speaking with a man ahead of the prayer. The phrase was interpreted by some as suggesting that certain Alfas attend such ceremonies primarily for financial gain.

The Fidau prayer, a significant Islamic ritual honoring the deceased, was held on Friday, January 24, drawing prominent figures, including Sheikh Faruq Onikijipa, who delivered a sermon addressing the controversy.

Sheikh Onikijipa criticized K1’s statement and urged him to apologize to the clerics. However, the musician has remained defiant, stating that an apology would imply admitting guilt, which he denies.

K1 said, “To admit guilt means saying, ‘Okay, don’t be angry.’ But there’s no reason for that because I have done nothing wrong. If you admit guilt, you are saying the accusations are true, which they are not.”
