Sanwo-Olu Appoints KWAM1’s Daughter As SSA

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has nominated Basirat Damilola Marshall, daughter of Fuji artist King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, often known as KWAM1, as his Senior Special Assistant on Tourism.

This was said in a widely shared video of her father expressing gratitude to the governor and in the congrats posted on her Instagram profile, @damimarshall_, on Thursday.

In the now-viral video, her father, KWAM1, praised Sanwo-Olu for appointing his daughter to his cabinet while playing live on stage during Oba Sikirullah Apena’s birthday celebration and coronation on Thursday.

The Fuji singer stated that Damilola, his daughter, urged him to express his gratitude to the governor in public for her appointment.*

Congratulating her on the appointment, a Nigerian, Olanrewaju-Smart Wasiu wrote, “Congratulations Barr. @damimarshall_ on your appointment as the Senior Special Assistant to the Lagos State Governor on Tourism. This is a deserving recognition for your hard work and contributions to our party”, to which she responded by saying “Thank you, sir.”

Another person, Balogun Basia wrote, “Please, join me in congratulating my friend K1 and the entire family on the appointment of my daughter Barrister Basirat Damilola Marshall as the SSA to the governor of Lagos State on Tourism. Damilola, this shall be the beginning of many good things that will come your way and that of your siblings Insha Allah, Alaumoh Amin.”

Until her appointment, Damilola was a principal partner at a law firm, Damilola Ayinde Marshal and Co.

As of the time of this report, efforts to reach the Special Adviser, Media and Publicity to the Lagos State Governor, Gboyega Akosile, for confirmation proved abortive, as messages sent to his WhatsApp line were not responded to.
