Renowned Nigerian Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, also known as Kwam1 or K1 De Ultimate, has announced the demise of his mother, Halima Anifowoshe, at the age of 105.
The Fuji star broke the terrible news on Saturday on his social media accounts, tweeting a photo of himself with his late mother and writing it: “Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi Raji’un. RIP Mama.”
This tragedy occurs just days after Alhaja Hafsat Ajoke Anifowoshe, one of Kwam1’s wives, died on Tuesday after an unspecified illness. In accordance with Islamic customs, she was buried that same day in Lagos’ Abari Cemetery.
On behalf of the council, the Chief Press Secretary to the Executive Chairman of the Lagos Island East Local Council Development Area (LIELCDA) sent condolences.
“We know it hurts so deeply to lose a loving mother and dependable partner. We wish we could find enough words to comfort you at this moment.
“You must, however, take solace in the time your mother spent on earth and her good service to God and humanity.
“We understand she was an excellent woman, affectionate mother, and dutiful parent to her children who was loved by all those who came in contact with her.
Rest assured that our thoughts are with you, and our prayers are that you, the children, and all those she left behind will find the strength to continue where she stopped. May her soul find eternal rest,” it stated.
