Veteran Fuji musician, Alhaji Kollington Ayinla, has reignited the long-simmering tensions within the Fuji music world, boldly declaring himself the undisputed leader over King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 de Ultimate.
In a recent interview with Agbaletu TV, Kollington responded sharply to K1’s recent allegations that he ignored the burial of K1’s mother, accusing him of offering only “flimsy excuses.”
Kollington firmly dismissed the accusations, explaining that he made several attempts to reach K1 during the mourning period but was consistently ignored.
“When Wasiu Ayinde’s mum died, I called him severally. He didn’t pick up, nor did he return the calls. Even on New Year’s Day, I called, and he didn’t pick up. I was like, what’s wrong with this boy? So, I let him be,” he recounted.
The Fuji legend suggested that K1’s recent chieftaincy title, Olori Omo Oba of Ijebuland, may have influenced his arrogant behavior.
However, Kollington was quick to downplay the significance of the title, saying, “If it is because he was crowned the ‘Olori Omo Oba’, that position is for his family at Ijebu, not for me. Does he want to become God?”
Drawing a clear line in the sand, Kollington emphatically reaffirmed his supremacy in the Fuji hierarchy, declaring:
“I am the leader of all Fuji singers. He can never be the leader while I am still alive. For me to have survived the sickness that happened to me recently, it is only God that can kpai (kill) me.”
This explosive exchange between the two musical giants has once again stirred heated debate within the Fuji music community.
