I’ve not reconciled with Faithia, lady in viral video not my wife – KWAM1

Nigerian Fuji legend, Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as Kwam 1, has responded to recent speculations surrounding his personal life and marital status.

Rumors had circulated suggesting that the 68-year-old musician had reconciled with his estranged wife, Fathia ‘Titi Marshal’ Titilola, and that her return led to the departure of his current wife, Aderopo Emmanuella, from his home.

The speculation gained momentum following Kwam 1’s public reunion with Titi Marshal during the burial of his mother, Halima Anifowoshe, held in Ijebu, Ogun State, in January, five months before the reports surfaced.

Kwam 1 and Titi Marshal were married at his Ijebu residence in March 2018, while he tied the knot with Emmanuella on November 18, 2021, in a grand ceremony at the Palace of the Alake of Egbaland in Abeokuta.

Addressing the situation in a recent interview, the Fuji icon firmly dismissed the rumors.

“She (Emmanuella) is the only one. I told her, ‘Leave social media, concentrate on your business and let me concentrate; in the end, the joy will be for us.’ I guess maybe she didn’t like it that way. She has every right to her reaction. Unfortunately, I am not getting younger anymore. I am 68 already. Do I need to fool myself?” Kwam 1 said.

“Titi Marshall is gone forever, but because she is gone, should I shut my eyes out on the three children she gave birth to for me? I didn’t do anything; I only concentrated on my project. Emmanuella brought this upon herself because I don’t know what she is doing on social media. You are not young anymore, you have two grown-ups at the university, and the third one is about to join them. So, these are the issues we must ponder, not social media things.”

He also debunked rumours suggesting that he had taken a new wife following his claimed split from Titi Marshal.

Kwam 1 clarified that claims linking a woman seen dancing to his performance in a viral video to a new marriage were entirely untrue and misleading.

The Fuji icon expressed sympathy for the woman in the video, stating that he could only imagine how embarrassed and uncomfortable she must have felt being falsely identified as his wife.

He added that such unfounded gossip was unfair and damaging.

 “Must I marry everyone? The lady is not my wife, and I have not married a new wife. That is it. Stella, I don’t have anything to add. I am into farming; I have farms, which take up my time. I don’t have time for social media squabbling regarding women or something. No, I can’t lie to you. And I promise you I will not speak to anyone else about this,” he added.

“I don’t have any intentions. What is ahead of me is more than marriage, marriage, marriage! I will send you some of the projects I am doing here. They are huge and take up 90 per cent of my funds. I am now into big business, aside from music. I am getting old. 68? So you can’t say you will be there forever. Don’t you consider what I am saying?”
