Na the Otedola way be this

Following the news, many social media users have praised Mr Eazi for his business acumen. This is not the first time the businessman-singer has impressed with his financial moves, as he gifted his colleague Peruzzi a million-dollar contract last year.

One Contract Melody: “If this is true, then son-in-law net-worth don pass father-in-law own. Everyone can now rest and understand he got the love, not the father’s money.”

Olobadagzy: “You can’t be dating a billionaire daughter and you will not be motivated to get rich. Otedola’s way.”

Paul Agram: “So he’s richer than Davido and Burna Boy. Wizkid net worth is $8b.”
