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

This was according to a viral video of her father thanking the governor and congratulations messages posted on her Instagram profile, @damimarshall_, on Thursday.

In the viral video, her father, KWAM1, expressed gratitude to Sanwo-Olu for appointing his daughter to his cabinet while performing on stage at Oba Sikirullah Apena’s coronation and birthday banquet on Thursday.

The fuji musician stated that his daughter, Damilola, had urged him to publicly congratulate the governor for her appointment.

Olanrewaju-Smart Wasiu, a Nigerian, congratulated her on the appointment, writing, “Congratulations Barr. @damimarshall_ on your appointment as the Senior Special Assistant to the Lagos State Governor on Tourism.” This is a well-deserved honor for your hard work and contributions to our party,” to which she replied, “Thank you, Sir.”

Another individual, Balogun Basia, said, “Please join me in congratulating my friend K1 and the entire family on the appointment of my daughter Barrister Basirat Damilola Marshall as the Special Assistant to the Governor of Lagos State on Tourism. Damilola, this will be the beginning of many excellent things for you and your siblings, insha Allah, Alaumoh Amin.”

Damilola was a principal partner in the law firm Damilola Ayinde Marshal and Co. before her appointment.

As of the time of writing, attempts to contact the Lagos State Governor’s Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, Gboyega Akosile, for confirmation were futile, as messages sent to his WhatsApp line went unanswered.
