Recall that Timi said Busola Dakolo used to be embarrassed when they were dating as he picked her with the branded Picanto he won on Nigerian Idol.
Reacting, an X user wrote, “‘I suffer for this girl hand’ is not a flex. Why do Nigerian men paint love as suffering? Who has bewitched you people? Everything about this story is unrequited love.
Man was working so hard to get her to be with him even though she was embarrassed by him. What is funny about the story?”
Responding, Timi simply wrote, “I am married the same woman and we have been together for almost 15 years. Do and tell your own love story as you will. She made me level. We talk about those times and laugh really hard. I even gist my kids about it. Enjoy your day.”
WOW.
Timi Dakolo (born January 20, 1981) is a Nigerian singer, songwriter, and music producer. He emerged winner of the inaugural season of Idols West Africa in 2007. Accompanying his victory was a recording contract with Sony BMG, in addition to other prizes.
Timi Dakolo was born in Accra, Ghana to a Nigerian father, Bayelsa-native David and a Ghanaian mother, Norah Kimmy Head, who died when Dakolo was thirteen years old. Despite being born in Ghana, Timi has a Nigerian passport and does not claim dual citizenship.
He was raised in Port Harcourt by his grandmother Ateni Dakolo and his aunt Susan Larry, and he credits his aunt as his early singing teacher. So deep was their relationship that Timi declined an offer to move to Lagos with his parents, opting to stay back in Port-harcourt with them.
In 2011, he released the song “There’s a Cry”. The music video was filmed in Nigeria. He is currently signed with Lone Records/Now Muzik.
