– In what has been described as a “heart-melting” display of reconciliation and love, young Malik Ayinde, the son of popular Nollywood actress Bisola Badmus, has sent an emotional birthday tribute to his father, Fuji legend King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall (K1 De Ultimate), as he clocks 69. The birthday wish comes at a significant time for the family, following years of a widely publicized estrangement and the actress’s grueling three-year battle with a life-threatening brain tumor. In a viral video shared by Bisola Badmus on her Instagram page on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, Malik was seen radiating joy as he showered his father with prayers and goodwill. “Happy birthday to you, daddy. Long life and prosperity to you, sir. More health and more wealth. This wouldn’t be your last birthday,” the teenager declared in the heartwarming clip. The video has triggered a wave of positive reactions from fans who are glad to see the young boy finally connecting with his father’s legacy. The relationship between Bisola and the Fuji maestro has been a rollercoaster of emotions. While the Fuji icon is known for his lavish birthday carnivals, recent years have seen him opt for more reflective celebrations, often citing the need to empathize with the economic situation of the country. However, Malik’s tribute has added a layer of family warmth to this year’s milestone. Bisola, who is now “hale and hearty,” continues to express her gratitude to God for surviving her health ordeal and for the blossoming bond between her son and his father.
