Nigerian Fuji maestro, King WasiAyinde Marshall, popularly known as KWAM 1 or K1 De Ultimate, has lost his mother, Halima Anifowoshe, to the cold hands of death.
KWAM 1’s mother has died at the age of 105.
The legendary musician shared the sad news on his social media pages.
He posted a photo of himself with his mother with the caption: ‘Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi Raji’un. RIP Mama’.
This comes just days after KWAM 1 lost one of his wives, Alhaja Hafsat Ajoke Anifowoshe, who passed away on Tuesday following an undisclosed illness.
She was immediately laid to rest at Abari cemetery, Lagos, according to Muslim rites.
In reaction to the news, Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, 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, known as K1 De Ultimate (KWAM1), who recently suffered a double bereavement.
“The reported deaths of his ex-wife, Alhaja Hafsat Ajoke Anifowoshe, and his mother, Alhaja Halima Shadiya Anifowoshe, within a few days, are indeed tragic.
“I commiserate with him and his entire family during this challenging 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.”
