The Anikinaiya and Bubiade branches of the Funsegbuwa Ruling House have formally issued letters rejecting and disclaiming the claimed ancestral linkage of K1, Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, to their respective families.
In the official letters, both royal branches stated categorically that K1 has no direct blood, ancestral, or genealogical connection to either the Anikinaiya or Bubiade families, thereby refuting all claims of lineage association.
The disclaimer was issued to safeguard traditional integrity, historical accuracy, and to prevent public misinformation regarding royal ancestry.
The families declared unequivocally that K1 does not originate from their families, nor is he genealogically connected to, either of the said ruling house branches.
“This declaration is issued in the interest of truth, peace, and preservation of royal heritage,” the letters confirmed.
In an official letter dated Thursday, 11 December, 2025, and signed by key executives of the ruling house — including Chairman Lateef Owoyemi, Deputy Chairman Adedokun Ajidagba, and Head of the Jadiara Royal House, Akinola Oledina — the family declared K1’s submitted linkage form “null, void, and of no consequence.”
The ruling house stated that its investigation found no proof that K1 belongs to either the Jadiafa Royal House or the Fusengbuwa Ruling House.
It further disclosed that the lineage form the veteran singer submitted was improperly certified by someone who is not a registered member of the Jadiara Royal House.
Fusengbuwa Ruling House said the form was also pre-signed on December 8 — two days before K1 himself signed it — raising concerns about its authenticity.
The Fusengbuwa Ruling House added that the individual who purportedly certified the form, Omoba Adetayo Eruobodo, has no standing to sign such documents on behalf of the family.
Following these findings, the ruling house declared that K1’s claim to membership is invalid and “of no consequence.”
