They made it! The Otedola sisters are no longer 'naija famous'. They are officially worldwide celebs.

The pair of DJ Cuppy (Florence Otedola) and fashion blogger Temi Otedola, made front page headlines on DailyMail.co.uk , today.

Trips to Paris Fashion Week, hobnobbing with Valentino and helping out with styling at Oscar de la Renta - sounds like all the trappings of a celebrity lifestyle.

But it's all in a day's work for Lagos-born Temi Otedola, 19, the daughter of one of Nigeria's richest men. Born in London, she returned to Nigeria for the first seven years of her life before coming back to attend boarding school, and is now settled in the capital. 

Temi's is the youngest daughter of energy tycoon Femi Otedola - worth an estimated £650million.He was listed as the 16th richest man in Africa by Forbes in 2015, and in Nigeria, where money is measured in dollars, he's referred to as a billionaire - with a fortune of $1.57billion.


But Temi insists that despite her family's wealth, her father and mother Nana have never spoiled her or her brother Fewa and two older sisters Florence and Christine, and is determined to prove herself on her own merits.


"We were brought up knowing all the success and money my father has made is his and we have to work for ourselves,' Temi told FEMAIL.

"We've definitely had that instilled in us. He might be bluffing but we certainly take him at face value. Anyway, we would not feel very good about ourselves just living off him."


While her father is currently supporting her as she studies for a degree in art history at University College London, Temi hopes to become independent by making a success of a career in fashion and has set up her own style blog JTO Fashion. 


She picks up inspiration by travelling to Paris and Milan for fashion week, listing Balenciaga, Marni and Valentino as her preferred fashion shows, and shares photos of her adventures with her 13,500 Instagram followers.


"I tend to go out only about twice a month and Cirque and Libertine are my favourite bars in London. But I'd rather go to Paris for the weekend and go to a few shows."


"My favourite fashion moment was probably last summer when I attended the Valentino Haute Couture show in Rome for three days," she recalled.

"My sister Florence and I were invited. It was an unforgettable trip including a private tour of the Vatican and meeting Mr Valentino himself at dinner the night before the Haute Couture show.


"It was a completely surreal moment because I've absolutely adored his line even before the creative directors Maria Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were at the helm. 


"We were just talking about the whole experience and the upcoming show and he struck me as being extremely elegant and kind in his manner. He was really, really lovely."
