Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, stole the spotlight at the wedding of singer and entrepreneur Mr Eazi (Tosin Ajibade) and billionaire heiress Temi Otedola with a heartfelt and light-hearted speech that drew laughter and admiration from guests.
Speaking as Chairman of the occasion, Dangote described Iceland, the couple’s wedding destination, as “a very special place” and confessed it was his first visit to the Nordic country. He joked that he had been asleep since his arrival but had to cancel many engagements just to attend the wedding, calling Temi “a very, very special person to the family.”
Turning to the groom, Dangote praised Mr Eazi for his entrepreneurial spirit, revealing his surprise at the scale of his business ventures across 18 African countries. He described him as “calm, humble, and a rare blend of musician and businessman,” adding that Temi was “lucky to have such a husband.”
For Temi, Dangote spoke fondly of her independence, noting that she had always wanted to build her own path without relying solely on her father’s wealth. He called her “entrepreneurial, tough, and determined,” qualities he believed would make her an outstanding wife.
Dangote also offered marital advice to the newlyweds, urging them to handle their affairs privately, draw closer to each other, and avoid unnecessary external influences. He jokingly promised to throw a “very big party” to celebrate the couple’s first child within the next year, leaving the choice of location London, Miami, or even back in Iceland to the couple.
The billionaire went on to commend Temi’s father, Femi Otedola, for making the lavish wedding possible, describing it as “the greatest wedding of the year” and “a truly historic celebration.”
