Nigerian music diva Tiwatope Savage, often known as Tiwa Savage, has spoken out about her feud with Davido and addressed long-running rumours about her connection with Wizkid.

Savage revealed that the feud with Davido began when she shared an Instagram story showcasing Sophia Momodu, the singer's first baby mama. She mentioned that her bond with Momodu came easily because their children go to the same school.
“Our kids have been friends since they were one, and they’re 10 now. I’ve known David for years, but I also built a bond with Sophia. I didn’t know there were issues between them,” she said.
She recalled an incident at a social function in which Davido misconstrued her greeting to Momodu.
"He assumed I was taking sides, which was incorrect. "She's just the mother of my son's friend," Savage said.

According to her, Davido misinterpreted the scenario and sent her angry messages, advising her to "be careful in Lagos." Feeling threatened, Savage filed a police petition, emphasising that it was out of precaution rather than hatred.
“I reached out to his family first, hoping to resolve it privately. When I got no response and the threats continued, I acted to ensure safety. It wasn’t about revenge,” she said.
Despite the incident, she insisted there was no lasting animosity. “I haven’t spoken to him since, but I have love for him. Our kids come first, and that’s what matters.”
On Wizkid, Savage dismissed speculation about a romantic past. “I love and respect Wizkid, but it’s not about him,” she clarified. She added that a previous secret relationship she once described as “embarrassing” was with another public figure, not Wizkid.
