Legit.ng reported that exclusive pictures from the cross-continent wedding emerged on social media.
Recalling the first time Temi introduced Mr Eazi (real name Tosin Ajibade) to him back in 2017, Otedola confessed that he wasn’t impressed by the singer’s appearance.
He stated:
"In 2017, Temi brought him home. I saw the dreadlocks and said, ‘Well…’ But something struck me that day. My parents were prophets, and I have that intrusion too. Something told me: this is Temi’s husband."
Wedding almost cancelled twice - Otedola
The billionaire also shared how two unexpected incidents nearly disrupted their plans.
First, the couple’s engagement in Dubai was threatened after missiles were fired during a clash between Israel and Iran.
Just days to the event, Otedola worried everything might fall apart, but it didn’t.
Then came another scare: a storm destroyed the wedding tent that had been prepared for the ceremony. But, according to Otedola, God came through for them yet again.
Switching to fatherly counsel, Otedola gave blunt but loving advice to the new couple.
To Temi, he said:
“You have to succumb to the whims of your husband. He is your husband and boss; no more Daddy, don’t call me.”
To Mr Eazi, he added:
“I have seen the entrepreneurial skill in you. Continue to love Temi. When you have problems, don’t involve third parties. Keep them within your wall, and God will bless you.”
