KWAM 1: ”Marrying More Than 1 Wife Is No Big Deal”

Fuji King, KWAM 1(King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall) has defended polygamy amongst Fuji musicians. In a recent chat with Vanguard, KWAM 1 says there is no big deal in having more than 1 wife.

When asked why it is that Fuji musicians tend to prefer marrying many wives? He said:‘Marrying more than one wife in this part of the world is no big deal. And I must tell you that it is not peculiar to Fuji musicians alone. Late Fela Anikulapo Kuti was not a Fuji artist and yet he had 27 wives. It is an issue that has to do with the individual, it has nothing to do with a career or a set of people. Aren’t there Fuji musicians with one wife? Don’t judge people in generic terms, judge them on individual terms.’
