Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has appointed Basirat Damilola Marshall, daughter of popular Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, a.k.a KWAM1, as his Senior Special Assistant on Tourism.

Her father, KWAM1, was seen in a viral video while performing on stage at the coronation and birthday reception of Oba Sikirullah Apena on Thursday, thanking Sanwo-Olu for appointing his daughter into his cabinet.

The fuji singer noted that it was his daughter, Damilola, who asked him to publicly thank the governor for her appointment.

Congratulating her on the appointment, a Nigerian, Olanrewaju-Smart Wasiu wrote, “Congratulations Barr. @DamiMarshal 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.”

Damilola reposted the tweet.

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