Awujale stool: KWAM1 drags Ogun Governor, Ijebu Ruling house, others To Court by Antoeni(op): 9:47pm On Dec 18, 2025
Fuji musician, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as Kwam1, has approached the Ogun State High Court sitting in Ijebu-Ode, dragging Governor Dapo Abiodun, the Ijebu-Ode Local Government, and the Awujale Interregnum Administrative Council, among others, to court over a lineage claim to the Awujale of Ijebuland stool.

The suit was contained in a court document, an interlocutory application seeking an interim injunction, filed on Tuesday at the court registry and seen by SaharaReporters on Thursday.

The document, dated 16th December, 2025, is titled: “IN THE HIGH COURT OF OGUN STATE IN THE IJEBU-ODE JUDICIAL DIVISION HOLDEN AT IJEBU-ODE.” The case is listed as Suit No: C3/238/2025.

In the suit, the claimant identified himself as “Otunba Wasiu Olasunkanmi Ayinde Adesanya Marshal,” while those listed as respondents include “His Excellency, Executive Governor of Ogun State Prince Dapo Abiodun, MFR,” the Executive Chairman of Ijebu-Ode Local Government, the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Ogun State, the Secretary of Ijebu-Ode Local Government, the Chairman of the Awujale Interregnum Administrative Council, and the Chairman of Funsengbuwa Ruling House, Otunba Lateef Owoyemi.

The application before the court is a “MOTION EXPARTE,” brought pursuant to “ORDER 38 RULES 4 AND ORDER 39, RULE 1 OF THE HIGH COURT OF OGUN STATE (CIVIL PROCEDURE) RULES 2024,” as well as “SECTION 36 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA 1999 (AS AMENDED)” and the inherent jurisdiction of the court.

In the relief sought, the applicant asked the court for “AN ORDER OF INTERIM INJUNCTION restraining the Respondents either by themselves, Privies, assigns, agents or anyone acting on their behalf from taking any steps in the installation process of the next Awujale of Ijebuland pending the hearing and determination of the substantive suit in this matter.”

The document further prayed the court for “SUCH FURTHER ORDER(S) as the court may deem fit to make in the circumstances of this case.”

Explaining the basis of the application, the grounds listed in the document include “Sections 36 and 6 (6) (c) of the Constitution FRN, 1999,” and the claim that “The Applicant is an aspirant to the stool of the Awujale of Ijebu land in Ogun State.”


It also stated that “There is need for the court to invoke its powers of interim injunction against the Respondents so as to secure the interest of the Applicant and preserve the res from being dissipated or interfered with by the Respondent.”

The suit adds a fresh legal dimension to the succession process of the Awujale of Ijebuland, with the court now expected to determine whether the installation process should be halted pending the determination of the substantive case.

Recall that the Fusengbuwa Ruling House in Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State, had formally rejected the lineage claim submitted by KWAM 1, declaring his completed linkage form invalid.


KWAM 1 had stated his intention to become the Awujale of Ijebuland, hinging his claim to being a lineage of Fusengbuwa Ruling House in Ijebu-Ode, a claim that is now disputed.

In an official letter dated 11 December 2025 and signed by key officers of the ruling house, the family acknowledged receiving the completed particulars and linkage form submitted by Otunba Adesanya.

If King Wasiu Ayinde is not from Idile Oba ni Ijebu… then how come the late Awujale of Ijebu land gave him the title Olori Omoba Akile Ijebu? please we need people that are knowledgeable about this to educate us peacefully

Wasiu Ayinde’s move is serious—taking the Ogun Governor and Ijebu-Ode ruling house to court over the Awujale throne dispute? That’s some heavy drama brewing in Ogun State! This one’s definitely gonna shake the traditional corridors. You think he’s got a strong case?

A singer is like a beggar and not suitable for esteemed Awujale position.

Kwam1 has officially moved from ‘King of Music’ to ‘King of Clowns’. So after decades of singing about other people’s lineages, he now wants to rewrite his own? The ruling house themselves have rejected his application, but instead of taking the L like a normal person, he’s running to court to force himself into a throne that clearly isn’t his. This isn’t ambition, it’s delusion served with a side of entitlement.

Maybe he confused ‘Fuji Vibes’ with ‘Royal Blood’. You can’t mic-drop your way into a centuries-old dynasty, bro. The court should charge him for wasting judicial time and cultural embarrassment. Somebody please play ‘Talazo’ for him so he can remember his actual job.

Governor Dapo, please just ignore this comic relief and let Ijebuland crown a real king, not a court jester.

He's a longtime friend of Tinubu and Ogun state government.

I'm 100% sure he consulted 1 or both of them, and this may be part of the game plan to enthrone him.

Just watch..
