Pain of Heartbreak Inspired My Tattoo – Tiwa Savage

Nigerian singer, Tiwa Savage has opened up on why she got a tattoo.
According to the star, the pain of a heartbreak inspired her tattoo.
Tiwa also opened up that she had to fly in the tattoo artist from Los Angeles to her house in Lagos.
She stated that the reason is because she doesn’t want to express her pain publicly in a tattoo parlour.
In a recent interview with media personality Katy Igwe, Savage disclosed that the session was bloody and the tattoo artist was worried.
“I flew in my tattoo artist from LA to Nigeria. And I did it [the tattoo] in my room. So I was in an environment where I was comfortable. When you are in a tattoo parlour sometimes, a lot of people are working and then you are going through that pain. I wanted to make sure that I was in a comfortable place.
 
“My tattoo artist walked in and was like, ‘What are you doing?… Is that going to come off?’ He he started tattoo my body, there was blood everywhere. So he was more concerned for me like, ‘What are you trying to do?’
 
“I did that [the tattoo] from the pain I felt from a heartbreak. I just wanted to do something to scream,” she explained.
Savage added, “Last two years was a very hard time. The relationship I experienced was crazy. I’m so happy I’m out of that relationship.”

“Tinubu, Dangote Group failed Phyna’s late sister” — Verydarkman

Nigerian activist and social media critic, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman, has condemned individuals and institutions he believes failed Phyna’s sister, Ruth Otabor, who died weeks after an accident involving a Dangote truck.

Ruth’s death was confirmed on Sunday by Eko Solicitors & Advocates on behalf of the Otabor family. Her passing came after weeks of treatment for severe injuries sustained in a road accident involving Dangote’s truck near Auchi Polytechnic, Edo State.

Reacting to the tragedy, Verydarkman faulted President Bola Tinubu, the Dangote Group, and Nigerians with social media influence, accusing them of failing to rally support when Ruth was still alive and in desperate need of advanced medical care.

In a strongly worded video, he said:
“Phyna’s sister has finally kpai, a lot of people are lending their voices to the RIP but when we needed those voices to pressure Dangote to do the right thing, 19 days was what she spent at the hospital but many refused to post because it won’t give them engagement. You bunch are hypocrites, may God forgive your souls. Nigeria has failed us. President Bola Tinubu, you have failed us all. And to Dangote Group, are you happy now? You had the time to take that girl abroad to treat her.”

His remarks came hours after the Dangote Group issued a condolence statement, expressing sadness over Ruth’s death and insisting that the company and its insurance partners had been covering all medical and financial costs since the accident.

The conglomerate further noted that arrangements had already been made to fly Ruth to India for advanced treatment, pending her doctors’ medical clearance. Unfortunately, she passed away before the process could be finalised.

BREAKING: BBNaija Star, Phyna’s Sister Ruth Otabor Who Was Hit By Dangote Truck, Has D!ed

Ruth Otabor, the sister of Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna, has tragically d!ed.

She passed away following a tragic accident involving a Dangote truck near Auchi Polytechnic in Edo State.

The incident occurred on August 13, 2025, just six days after Ruth graduated from the polytechnic, and resulted in the amputation of her leg.

According to eyewitnesses, the heavy-duty truck crushed her leg before it was eventually stopped by a bystander.

Phyna had been demanding justice for her sister, accusing the company of negligence and vowing not to let the matter be swept under the carpet.

Dangote Group had accepted responsibility for the incident, promising comprehensive medical care and appropriate compensation to Ruth’s family.

Ruth’s passing has sparked an outpouring of emotions, with fans and fellow celebrities mourning her loss and calling for justice.

The family has requested privacy as they mourn and will communicate funeral arrangements in due course.

“The family is presently grieving and will appreciate to be given a private moment to mourn the departed.

“The funeral arrangement will be communicated to the public in due course,” the statement added.
