Nollywood actress and filmmaker Omotola Jalade Ekeinde has celebrated the engagement of her daughter, Meraiah Ekeinde, as the Ekeinde family looks ahead to another major milestone.
The actress shared the joyful development with her followers, posting a video from the engagement celebration and expressing excitement over the family’s forthcoming wedding plans. The announcement has attracted attention from fans and colleagues across Nigeria’s entertainment industry, who have joined the family in celebrating the occasion.
Meraiah Ekeinde, popularly known as Mimi, is Omotola’s second daughter with her husband, Captain Matthew Ekeinde. She has built a public profile in fashion and beauty and has previously worked as a model and fashion related entrepreneur. Recent biographical reports identify her as a fashion merchandiser and apparel product developer.
Meraiah has grown up in the public eye as part of one of Nollywood’s best known families. Her mother, Omotola, and Captain Matthew Ekeinde have four children Princess, Meraiah, Matthew Junior and Michael. Omotola and her husband have also maintained a long standing marriage, having officially married in 1996 and later celebrated a distinctive white wedding aboard an aircraft in 2001.
The engagement marks a new chapter for Meraiah and her family, although details about her fiance, wedding date and ceremony arrangements have not been widely disclosed. Obaland Magazine understands that the family’s immediate focus is on celebrating the engagement while preparations for the eventual wedding take shape.
The development comes as Omotola continues to remain active in Nigeria’s entertainment space. In March 2026, Channels Television reported on the Nigerian premiere of her directorial debut, Mother’s Love, which also featured Meraiah in her on screen debut.
As congratulatory messages continue to pour in, the engagement has added another celebratory chapter to the Ekeinde family story, with fans now looking forward to further details about the wedding.
