Veteran Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, better known as K1 De Ultimate, got more than he bargained for on Monday at a public event in Lagos when he was abruptly shunned by the state governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), for trying to interrupt him while he was addressing some electorates in Gbagada.

The governor had gone to the Gbagada/Kosofe axis of the state with the governorship candidate of the All Peoples Congress (APC), Akinwunmi Ambode, to canvass for their votes when the unexpected happened.

While speaking on the campaign points of the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the gubernatorial poll in the state, Jimi Agbaje, the Fuji lord tried to interject with a song in support of Fashola’s explanation, but the governor shut him off.

"Please! Please!! I allowed you sing your song. Let me say my speech. I have come to talk here. When I am through, you will sing and I will dance!!!" Fashola told K1 De Ultimate in Yoruba language, who later kept mute until the end of the programme.

Some of the people around could not believe their ears, but said in hush tones that the musician deserved the embarrassment the governor gave him.

At most political rallies in Nigeria, musicians are begged to stop singing to allow political gladiators give their speeches, but they mostly decline. Even at the PDP presidential rally held in Lagos some days ago, moderators had hectic time stopping the music acts from singing to allow speeches from speakers.
