Omotola Jalade – I Don’t Care if One of My Daughters Marries at 18



Nollywood Diva, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde in a recent interview said if she didn’t marry her Husband, Captain Matthew Ekeinde, she probably wouldn’t have gotten married…

During the interview Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde was asked how she would react if one of her daughters got married at the age of 18.

“I don’t care much about it. It’s not something I think about. It’s not my cup of tea. I know people want me to think about that because I got married early. What I always say to people is all fingers are not equal. The fact that I got married early doesn’t mean my daughter must get married early. My mother didn’t get married early. It doesn’t have to be hereditary”


“If I like the guy and we feel like she is mature enough to handle it and the person is responsible, then why not? We can endorse it. I don’t regret anything. Everything is a blessing to me. I won’t stop her, but it just has to be the right person. I married the right person” she also said.
Omotola married Captain Matthew Ekeinde at the age of 18 while she was at Yaba College of Technology.
