Renowned Nigerian rapper Jude Abaga, widely known by his stage name M.I, has publicly acknowledged the pivotal role his wife, Eniola Mafe, has played in supporting both his personal and professional endeavors. During a detailed conversation on the popular Outside The Box podcast, M.I highlighted the unwavering encouragement and assistance he has consistently received from Eniola, describing her as “the most supportive person” in his life and career.
In his discussion, M.I recounted the early days of his entrepreneurial journey when he was raising capital for his company, TASCK. He revealed that Eniola was the very first person to financially contribute, providing a cheque to help kickstart his venture. This gesture, he noted, was not just a financial contribution but a significant emotional boost that reinforced his confidence and determination to succeed in a highly competitive industry.
Beyond financial support, M.I emphasized that Eniola is actively involved in his creative and professional life. She frequently accompanies him to the studio, attends his live performances, and even participates in business meetings. Despite managing her own demanding career, she consistently prioritizes spending quality time assisting and encouraging him in multiple aspects of his work, demonstrating a rare blend of dedication, love, and partnership.
“My wife is the most supportive person,” M.I explained. “When I started trying to raise money for my company - TASCK, she was the first person that gave me a cheque. She also supports my music-making process. She filmed many of my clips online. She is always supportive, constantly helping me think through ideas, even when I initially feel I don’t need advice. Often, she has prepared detailed analyses of issues before I’ve even thought them through.”
He continued, “It is such a gift to have her. She comes for the shows, travels with me, is with me in the studio, helps on designs, and even sits in meetings to listen and provide input. All of this while managing her own professional commitments. Every free moment she has, she dedicates to supporting me. Truly, she is the most supportive person.”
M.I’s remarks underscore the importance of having a strong support system in both creative and business endeavors, highlighting how Eniola’s involvement has positively influenced the growth and success of TASCK, as well as his music career. Her role extends beyond mere assistance; she is a partner, adviser, and constant source of motivation and inspiration.
Fans and followers have responded to M.I’s heartfelt acknowledgment on social media, praising the couple’s partnership and emphasizing the significance of spousal support in achieving professional and personal milestones.
