The musician says he belongs to the Jadiara Royal House within the Fusengbuwa lineage, while the ruling house disputes this claim, insisting he has no ancestral link to the family entitled to present a candidate.
Through a motion filed on December 16, K1 is asking the court for an interim order to halt all actions on the selection process until the main case is heard and decided.
He told the court the request is meant to protect his interest and prevent any step that could affect the outcome of the case, as the court is yet to fix a date for hearing.
