Temi Otedola, wife of Nigerian singer Mr Eazi, has shared insights into how her husband handles disagreements, revealing that he often withdraws and communicates through messages instead of speaking directly.
During an episode of their joint podcast, the actress described this approach as somewhat immature, noting that she would rather have face-to-face conversations when issues arise.
She recounted a particular moment when she realised he was upset with her only after receiving a lengthy email, despite both of them being in the same apartment at the time.
“The way I found out that Tosin [Mr Eazi] was actually angry with me on a Monday was that he sent me a long message. And bear in mind that we are sitting in the same flat. I was minding my business, responding to my mails and I got a message saying everything he was upset about me for. While I was reading it my body was already becoming hot. At some point, I couldn’t even read it because I was so angry.
“Because I have asked him ten times if he was upset with me and he said nothing. Honestly, if you’re in the same flat as someone do I think it is a bit childish to not go up and speak to them? Yes. But that is what you’re comfortable with. You find it easier to express yourself by typing. I have gotten some long *ss emails in the past. At least you’re getting it out. But it would be nice if you could just sit down with me and have it out,” she expressed.

In response, Mr Eazi admitted that he prefers expressing his thoughts through writing, explaining that it helps him communicate more clearly.
“I would prefer to sit down with you and talk things out. But I see that sometimes when we sit down to talk, I don’t hit the nail on the head. Also, I think if I communicate during tense moments, I might sound too harsh.

“I don’t think texting someone you’re sitting next to is the best way to communicate. But that is my way. And everybody just needs to find what their way of communication is and communicate. For me, it’s typing. When I want to really express myself, I can do it via typing better than speaking it. Because then I can read it again and crosscheck my tone,” he said.
