Ekohotblog reports that King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as KWAM 1 has reacted to allegations that he failed to refund his clients after failing to show up at a concert he was paid for in the United States.

A show promoter accused the Ade ori okin crooner of not only failing to make an appearance for the event after he was duly paid but also refusing to issue a refund.

“If you think you are big and can oppress people, then you lie. K1, pay people their money. Two of your victims are crying in my DM. You didn’t show up for their show, which is enough embarrassment,” the promoter wrote.

Reacting to the allegations, Wasiu Ayinde explained that it was due to issues beyond is control, majorly lack of visa approval for his band.

He also seized the opportunity to advise people to be courteous and civil in their engagement.

“I owe my fan’s across the globe a high level of respect, hence the need for my explanation recently. That my band trip to the US has not been canceled. All that is necessary to make the trip a success was put in place,” he wrote.

“Work permit, flight arrangements, and other necessary things, except the right of visa approval for those members of the band who needs to obtain that before we proceed. Surely I’m not in control of approving that visa.

“I can understand agitation from many fans and music lovers across, but patience is required to get all this bottleneck sorted out with regards to the applicable laws that permit entertainers coming to America.

“A nice word speaks volumes of your intentions rather than being bossy to the instruments that form your rise up to stardom. Let us refrain from insulting words in the name of aggression. We have an integrity to protect.

“Agents of the 3rd hand parading themselves on social media should stop making issues out of nothing.”
