Nigerian music star Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, has revealed that his biggest regret in life is that his late mother never got the opportunity to watch him perform on stage.
The singer made the disclosure during an episode of the Brut Podcast, where he reflected on his mother’s life, her support for his career and her reluctance to travel.
Mr Eazi said his mother was conservative and did not enjoy travelling, making it difficult for him to take her along to watch his performances, even when his career took him across the world.
“My only regret in life is that my mom never got to watch me perform on stage before she passed away. She was very conservative in her life in general. She didn’t like travelling, not even from Lagos to Accra,” he said.
According to the singer, as his career grew, he travelled extensively for performances, but his mother continued to support him from home through prayers.
“And the more my career progressed, the more I was travelling across the world to do shows. But she always supported me with prayers,” he added.
Mr Eazi also disclosed that his father watched him perform only once, in 2017, several years after he became a recognised music star.
He described his father as very supportive, noting that he regularly calls to congratulate him whenever he releases a new song or project.
Mr Eazi’s mother, Pastor (Mrs) Ifeoma Edith Ajibade, a former banker who later became a pastor, died on March 6, 2025.
