Billionaire businessman Femi Otedola described meeting Eazi for the first time in 2017 and acknowledged that he was skeptical at first but that he was sure he was meant to be his daugther’s husband.
Speaking at Temi Otedola’s wedding to artist Mr. Eazi, Otedola said the union was a gift from God, despite difficulties including a storm that almost interrupted their ceremony and a war threat.
In his message, he praised the couple’s love and business energy as a wonderful fit, urged Temi to respect her husband, and told Eazi to continue loving her. He also cautioned the pair from bringing outsiders into their marriage.
He said, “In 2017, probably 8 years ago, Temi said she wanted to introduce me to Tosin. I said, “No problem, bring him.” I saw his dreadlocks and said, “Well,” but something struck me that day; my parents were prophets, so I have that strong intrusion. Something told me that this is Temi’s husband. Eight years later, the dream has come true.
“What I have in common with Temi is very spiritual—a spiritual bond. This wedding is blessed by God.
I will tell you two incidents that explain why I said this wedding is blessed.

We were going to have the engagement at my house in Dubai, and there was a war between Israel and Iran, and they fired missiles at Qatar ten days before the wedding. And I thought of it and was a bit worried we would cancel the engagement, but I said it would happen. And it happened.
This tent we are in—last week I saw a video where there was a storm, and it blew away the whole tent.
‘‘So this is blessed by my God.
“Temi, I wish you all the best in your future endeavours. You found a very great guy who comes from a decent family.
‘‘One thing I will advise you is that you have to succumb to the whims of your husband. He is your husband and boss; no more Daddy—don’t call me. What I observed is that they are truly in love with each other. Temi is an entrepreneur, and Tosin is also an entrepreneur, so they match each other—made in heaven.
“For Tosin, you’re going to go places. I have seen the entrepreneurial skill in you. Continue to love Temi. When you have issues/problems, keep them to yourself. Never call your friends when you have problems; keep it within your wall, and God will bless you and your marriage.”
