Nigerian Fuji master King WasiAyinde Marshall, also known as KWAM 1 or K1 De Ultimate, has lost his mother, Halima Anifowoshe, to death.
KWAM 1’s mother died at the age of 105.
The iconic artist posted the terrible news on his social media platforms.
He shared a photo of himself with his mother with the comment, ‘Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi Raji’un. RIP Mama’.
This comes only days after KWAM 1 lost one of his wives, Alhaja Hafsat Ajoke Anifowoshe, who died on Tuesday from an unexplained illness.
She was instantly laid to rest in Lagos’ Abari cemetery, in accordance with Muslim traditions.
In response to the news, Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, wrote on X: “On behalf of my family, I sincerely sympathise with the popular Fuji maestro, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, also known as K1 De Ultimate (KWAM1), who recently suffered a double bereavement.
“The reported deaths of his ex-wife, Alhaja Hafsat Ajoke Anifowoshe, and mother, Alhaja Halima Shadiya Anifowoshe, within a few days are very heartbreaking.
“I sympathize with him and his entire family during this difficult period of mourning.
“May Almighty Allah grant them the fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss, forgive the sins of the departed, and grant them eternal rest.”
