Tiwa Savage’s N*des Don’t Affect Her Value To Kings – Charles Awuzie

Charles Awuzie, a Nigerian cyber security expert based in South Africa, has hailed Tiwa Savage, the award-winning Nigerian singer.

He reacted to the British monarch’s invitation to Tiwa Savage to perform at the historical coronation ceremony of King Charles III.

Awuzie claimed that the possession of her nudes by people could not affect her value to kings.

The cyber security expert stated this in a post via his verified Facebook page on Tuesday.

Recall that King Charles III will be officially coronated alongside Queen Consort, Camilla, on May 6, at Westminster Abbey.

She became the first Nigerian artiste to receive an invitation to perform at a foreign royal coronation ceremony.

Meanwhile, Awuzie advised people to stop worrying about what others say or think about them, instead focus on building value.

He wrote, “When they leaked her s£x tape, a lot of people thought it was her end. She has been blackmailed by those around her and recently was almost kidnapped.

“#TiwaSavage is Queen of afrobeats – your possession of her nudes doesn’t affect her value to kings.

“The non-religious world does not judge petty scandals – it looks for value in your talent, skills and influence.

“Stop worrying about what people say or think about you – focus on building value.

“That same Tiwa whose s£x video is hiding in your phone is valued by Kings. You see her nudes, they see her greatness. Unfortunately, what you think about her doesn’t change her value. What you think about me doesn’t change my value and what anyone thinks about you, doesn’t change your value. Just have value.”
