Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola has received a diamond-encrusted version of the traditional Yoruba Ayo board game from his third daughter, actress Temi Otedola, as a birthday gift.

On Friday, November 14, Otedola shared a video capturing him unwrapping the gift, which included a card from Temi in his office.

The personalised item, evoking their shared cultural heritage and childhood memories, prompted Otedola to call the gift priceless.

“Temi, thanks love, you know how to steal Papa’s heart, this is priceless," the billionaire said in the video.

In related news, Legit.ng reported that Femi Otedola left Nigerians laughing after a teasing moment with his daughter, Temi Otedola.

He responded: “I sleep for a living.”
