Nigerian Fuji music legend, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, popularly known as Kwam1 or K1, beams with pride as his daughter, Dami Marshall, secures a significant role in Lagos State Government.
The announcement of Dami’s appointment as the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Lagos State Government on Tourism garnered mixed reactions across the internet. While some celebrated the achievement, others criticized the appointment, citing issues of nepotism and favoritism in governance.
Despite the divided opinions, Kwam1 stands firmly behind his daughter, expressing his joy and congratulations during a chance encounter at an event celebrating the life of Pa Olusegun Samuel Ajanaku, JP, in Lagos.
A viral clip captures Kwam1’s heartfelt congratulatory message to Dami, affectionately referring to her as the “newest appointee in town.”
Reactions to the video reflect the spectrum of public opinion. While some commend Dami’s hard work and merit, others raise concerns about the prevalence of connections and nepotism in Nigerian politics.
