She recently had her say while performing at a recent show, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to her, she already has her own money, so she isn’t particular about finding a wealthy man, and she just needs a guy who matches her energy and vibe.
Tiwa added that she can confidently walk away from unpleasant situations because she has her own money and is not reliant on any man.
WOW.
