\"Tomi <\/a>Tomi Thomas and Efya got married on February 14, 2026<\/p>\n

On February 15, 2026, Ghanaians online were left in shock after videos and pictures surfaced showing renowned Ghanaian songstress Efya tying the knot with Nigerian singer Tomi Thomas on February 14.<\/p>\n

The wedding came as a surprise, as their relationship had been kept private and there had been no prior indication of the ceremony. <\/p>\n

While congratulations are in order, many are now asking: Who is Tomi Thomas?<\/p>\n

Here are some facts about Tomi Thomas<\/p>\n

Background and upbringing<\/p>\n

Tomi Thomas was born in Nigeria on November 9, 1992, and is aged 33. He is a singer, songwriter, and producer.<\/p>\n

Although music is not known about his personal life, he is believed to have lived and studied in Lagos, Nigeria, and the United States.<\/p>\n

His passion for music began at the age of four during a birthday party for his grandmother.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to do something, so I just started performing for the family, and everybody loved it. That\u2019s how my musical journey started,\u201d he recalled in an interview with the iMullar website.<\/p>\n

He continued his dream in school, where he took up drumming and joined the drama club.<\/p>\n

Music journey <\/p>\n

His love for music then carried on to high school, where he joined a music group called \u201cCastey Republic\u201d.<\/p>\n

In 2008, he became a professional musician after he recorded with popular Nigerian sound engineer Ikon at his \u201cRed Room Studio.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fresh out of high school, he then joined another musical group called L.O.S (Loud on Sound), which was active from 2010 to 2014.<\/p>\n

The group released several popular singles, including \u201cOn Fire\u201d, and \u201cWish You Could Stay.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Solo career <\/p>\n

After L.O.S., Tomi decided to pursue a solo career while he was in Dubai for University.<\/p>\n

Tomi started one of the first independent distribution companies in the UAE called \u201cUrban Mass\u201d, where he distributed his own music along with other artistes.<\/p>\n

That was where he released his debut EP, \u201cPatience,\u201d and his hit single, \u201cReady or Not.\u201d<\/p>\n

He returned to Nigeria after university and emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic with collaborations with various musicians across Africa and the world.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ties to Ghana<\/p>\n

In 2013, LOS released \u201cBad Guy P\u201d, featuring Nigerian singer Banky W and Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie. The song went on to be a hit across both countries.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Tomi Thomas had his first performance in the United Kingdom when he joined Afro-dancehall musician Stonebwoy on his Anloga Junction UK Tour.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was at home in Nigeria; my manager, Anthony, called me and said he had spoken to my international manager, David, and they were like, ‘Stonebwoy is going on tour.’ I was like, \u2018I\u2019m gonna come.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo weeks later, I touched down and called up Stonebwoy; he said, ‘pull up\u2019. We got on the tour bus, went to Manchester, and we did it; it was madness. We got on the bus again, went to Birmingham, and did it again,\u201d he said in an interview with Adesope Olajide in 2021.<\/p>\n

He further stated that he would appear on stage in Ghana for the first time at Stonebwoy\u2019s BHIM Concert in Accra. But he could not show up.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to 2026: Tomi Thomas is now in the spotlight after marrying Ghanaian musician Efya (Jane Fara Fauzzier Afia Boafowaa Yahaya Awindor, age 38).<\/p>\n

The Valentine\u2019s Day ceremony drew appearances from celebrities, including King Promise and Hajia4Reall, making it one of the most talked-about events of the year.<\/p>\n
