‘Ga’nu sí Comment: ‘You’re not God’ – Kwam 1 breaks silence at recent outing

The Fuji musician Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, known as Kwam 1, appears to have addressed the controversy surrounding his ‘Ga nu si’ comment during the Fidau prayer for his late mother, Alimotu Anifowoshe. PREMIUM TIMES gathered that Kwam 1 in January, while preparing for his late mother’s eight-day Fidau ceremony, incurred the wrought of some Islamic clerics when he used the phrase ‘Ga’nu sí during a conversation with a man. Speaking in Yoruba, the singer said, ”Alfas (Muslim clerics) will not go to my father’s house for the party; it’s my house they will ‘Ga’nu sí. We then prayed in my home before returning to my father’s house for the main party.”
