Legendary Nigerian rapper, Jude Abaga, popularly known as M.I, has showered praises on his wife, Eniola Mafe, for being his biggest pillar of support both in his personal life and career.

Speaking on a recent episode of the Outside The Box podcast, M.I revealed that Eniola was the first person to donate money when he was raising funds for his company, TASCK, a platform dedicated to driving social change through entertainment and creativity.

The rapper explained that beyond financial support, his wife plays a hands-on role in his journey—from following him to studios and shows, helping him film clips, attending meetings, to even offering him in-depth perspectives on issues before he fully processes them himself.

“My wife is the most supportive person… When I started trying to raise money for my company TASCK, she was the first person that gave me a cheque.
She supports my music-making process. She has filmed many of my clips online. She comes to the shows, she travels with me, she is with me in the studio and even at meetings—despite having her own career. She is the most supportive person. It is such a gift to have her,” M.I said.

Opinion:
In an era where celebrity marriages are often under scrutiny and sometimes crumble under the weight of fame, M.I’s testimony about his wife stands as a refreshing reminder of what true partnership looks like. Love is sweet, yes—but supportive love is priceless.

Eniola’s role in M.I’s life highlights something many often overlook: behind every successful man (and woman) is often a partner who chooses to invest, encourage, and walk the journey side by side. Her actions show that support in relationships isn’t only about money; it’s about presence, sacrifice, and a willingness to share both the spotlight and the struggles.

For fans, this glimpse into their marriage is both inspiring and grounding. It shows that even superstars need safe spaces, strong partners, and unwavering encouragement. M.I calling his wife his “most supportive person” isn’t just sweet—it’s a lesson in gratitude and a testament to how much stronger couples can be when love is backed by partnership.

At a time when young people look up to celebrities not only for their art but also for life values, M.I and Eniola’s bond sets an example worth emulating.
