Marking the 60th birthday of Fuji music legend, Alhaji Wasiu
Ayinde aka Kwam1, has triggered many ‘sons and daughters’ paying
tributes.
The Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State mansion of the musician was besieged by
fans, well-wishers, friends and family members to mark his March 3
birthday.
As birthday shout-out poured in on Friday for Kwam1, Nollywood
actress Funke Adesiyan, also took to Instagram to ‘celebrate her dad.’
Sharing the above picture where she was with the Fuji maestro, Funke wrote:
“Still your day daddy… I remember the day we took this picture on
Maddisson Avenue, New York. You gave me the suprise of my life when you
called me from Battery Park that you were looking for my school to say
hello to me. I thought you were joking. I sent you the address on
whatsapp. Lo and Behold, Bobo was at our reception. You came to our
admin office and asked for my file. You were stunned to see i paid
$56,000 to educate myself. You burst crying and praying for me. All i
see on your face was Pride! You brought out a bundle of money that
clearly was sprayed for you as it was filled with all denominations. You
counted $5000 and gave me as your contribution towards my education.
You took me to 5th avenue to shop for me and headed for the airport. I
will remain stunned that you made a NY trip just to see me. You are not
only a father to me, you are my friend and a friend to my parents (as they do ofofo behind me) lol. Have a blast 60 like 40.” (sic)
Known to always flaunt her wealth and rich background, Funke, who
once dated actor/producer Saheed Balogun earned the admiration of some
of her fans. Some were not too generous with theirs either—they
lambasted her for making this public.
