The wedding, held in Iceland, was filled with heartfelt advice from Otedola and Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, for the couple’s future.
A Father’s Guidance
In a viral video from the ceremony, Femi Otedola shared warm words with the couple.
He praised Mr Eazi, saying, “You’ve found a wonderful man from a good family.” He advised Temi to put her marriage first, calling her husband “the boss” now that she’s married.
“Don’t call me when you have issues,” he said with a smile, urging them to keep their love strong.

“She never relied on her father’s wealth,” he said. He praised Mr Eazi’s business success, noting, “I didn’t know you run businesses in 18 African countries. You’re doing great things.”
Dangote advised the couple to focus on each other and avoid outside interference. “Keep your problems between you two,” he said.
He predicted a bright future, saying, “With your charm and hard work, you could soon be the richest people around.”
