Temi: Why I Dropped My Father’s Name ‘Otedola’ After Marrying Mr Eazi
Temi Otedola has revealed why she now goes by her husband’s name after marrying singer Mr Eazi.
She said it was a personal choice and part of embracing her new life as a wife.
Actress and fashion influencer Temi Otedola, daughter of Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola, has explained why she no longer uses her father’s surname after her marriage to singer Tosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi.

In an interview with the BBC, Temi said that taking her husband’s name was the natural step for her as a married woman, though she stressed it was a personal decision. “I’m now a married woman, the obvious thing for me is to take my husband’s name. But it’s my personal choice. I also respect a woman’s ability to choose,” she said.
Temi added that moving quietly during their relationship helped her control how much of their story was shared with the public. “Moving in silence allows you to build the story you want and share it when and how you’re ready,” she noted.
