The rift between Fuji giants, Wasiu ‘KWAM 1′ Ayinde and Kollington Ayinla appear to have finally been resolved following a recent video that surfaced on social media.
This comes after a recent video surfaced on social media, capturing Kollington hailing KWAM 1 in Yoruba for sending cash and rams to his home ahead of Eid-el-Kabir.
He also appears to place a phone call to the fellow Fuji star, offering prayers and gratitude for the generous gesture.
“He sent rams to Kollington/ He also put money in my pockets/ Can you all see Wasiu/ You too will grow old/ Come and see what Ayinde did/ He sent rams from Ijebu Ode to Kollington/ From Ijebu Ode to his father/ You too will grow old,” he sings.
Many people were surprised by the warm exchange, as they thought the two music legends were still not on good terms.

In 2025, KWAM 1 spoke about their strained relationship and shared his disappointment that Kollington did not offer condolences after his mother passed away.
“What I said about Alhaji Kollington was not an insult to him. It was my right to say your mother died and I supported you. How do you feel about not talking to me that ‘Wasiu, sorry for the loss of your mother. Here is my condolences. I want to see who would come to me and say what I am angry about is not worth it,” he said.
“And the flimsy excuse you gave was that you called me, but I did not pick up your call. You did not call me when your mother died. You practically told me as I stood by Sikiru when he lost his mother I should do the same for you.”
Kollington is widely seen as one of the pioneers of the Fuji genre in Nigeria, often mentioned with his friend and rival, the late Ayinde Barrister, as one of the two most influential artists who shaped Fuji music from the 1970s to the 1990s.
KWAM 1 has had a career spanning over fifty years and remains a major figure in Nigerian music, earning numerous awards and widespread recognition.
