Fuji Lord, Wasiu Olasunkanmi Marshal, popularly known as K1 de Ultimate, has denied reports making the rounds that he beat up broadcaster, Wole Sorunke who is more known on Radio as MC Murphy at the 60th birthday party of His Royal Highness, Oba Abdulfatai Akamo, the Old of Itori Ewekoro, Ogun State, yesterday.
Broadcasters under the aegis of Freelance and Independent Broadcasters Association of Nigeria,(FIBAN), had at a press conference, on Friday, alleged that the Fuji super star and ‘his boys’ beat up the broadcaster at the party. The FIBAN had also called on the Alaafin of Oyo, to strip the musician of his ‘Mayegun of Yorubaland’ title, for the alleged offence.
The FIBAN had claimed that K1 allegedly disrupted the party, which had some prominent persons in attendance, when “he and his boys brutalised, harassed and humiliated the FIBAN member over what they called a minor issue”
In a statement on Saturday, the spokesperson of the Ayinde organisation, Kunle Rasheed said the event painted by Sorunke and FIBAN never took place.
Mr. Rasheed said, “it is unfortunate that Mr. Sorunke and FIBAN are seriously looking for ways to malign King Wasiu Ayinde”.
“K1 was never involved in any violence at that party. Indeed, many followed K1’s performance live through the social media yesterday and we wonder at what point this monumental violence took place that the live cameras did not capture it”.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Ayinde’s title, ‘Mayegun of Yorubaland“, is a solid statement that the man stands for peace. Anything that happened to him (Sorunke) has nothing to do with Alhaji (Ayinde)“, he concluded.
