Nigeria’s music queen, Tiwa Savage, has spoken up at last about her widely-discussed remark suggesting she might consider becoming a second wife.

The award-winning singer explained that the comment, which became a trending topic across social platforms, came from a place of deep emotional honesty.

The 45-year-old superstar shared that her journey with love has left scars she rarely talks about, and those moments of vulnerability sometimes slip into her public expressions.

Tiwa Savage looked back on her previous marriage and spoke openly about the impact it had on her outlook. According to her, being the first and only wife did not shield her from pain.

She stated: “I was a first wife, where did that get me? I got married as the only wife, but here we are. I’m tired of being heartbroken; maybe I’m getting it wrong. Maybe I should try being a second wife.”

But Tiwa was quick to clarify that the statement was not a declaration of interest in polygamy.

To avoid any misunderstanding, the singer emphasized that she does not want to become a second wife. She explained: “It’s not my choice, though. I don’t want to. I wish I could tell my truth, but I will be dragged.”
