Tinubu’s primary residence in Lagos State is located on Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi.

Tiwa Savage, in an interview with content creator, Korty, spoke about her Ikoyi home, which she also referred to as a ‘safe haven’ due to its proximity to Tinubu‘s residence, security, and status.

She said, “To be honest, this is like my temporary place. I am building one I bought somewhere, but it’s not ready until next year.

“So this is like my safe haven till then. I feel safe. I feel safe actually. I actually feel a little bit important ’cause the president’s house is in front.”

Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has spoken openly about her dating life, disclosing that she has had only one truly good relationship.

In an emotional interview with Korty EO, Savage disclosed that, unfortunately, her partner had passed away.

The 45-year-old stated that aside from her late lover, she has been unlucky in her other relationships.

“There is hardly any relationship I would look back at and see anything positive. They are all d*cks! Actually, there is one, but he passed away.

“May his soul rest in peace. He was incredible,” she said.

Tiwa Savage said she always advised her son to treat women right because of how she suffered in wrong relationships.

The singer was married to music executive Tunji Balogun, popularly known as Tee Billz, from 2013 until their divorce in 2018; they have one child together, a son named Jamil.

Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has disclosed that she felt mixed emotions after giving birth to her son, admitting she was not very excited at the time and even cried when she learned the baby was male rather than female.

Speaking in a recent interview with YouTuber Korty EO, Savage explained that she had always wanted a girl, which made it difficult to bond with her son initially for two years.

She recalled being dropped by a brand due to how childbirth affected her looks and feeling like her son had destroyed her career.

She said looking back now she is grateful because her son has become her best friend.

“Honestly, I didn’t bond with my son for the first year or two. I always wanted a girl. They told me it was a boy, and I started crying.

“So, when he came he was always crying and my body didn’t snap back. I looked horrible. I was supposed to do a campaign with Pepsi at the time and they turned me away. And I just thought this boy has destroyed me. But now, he is my best friend,” Savage said.

The singer said she always advised her son to treat women right because of how she suffered in wrong relationships.

“I always tell him, you mum suffered oo, make sure you treat any girl like a queen. It is very important for me to raise him as a good man. He is going to make mistakes, he is not perfect. But at the core of him, I want him to be kind,” she added.

Tiwa Savage welcomed her son, Jamil Balogun, in July 2015 with then-husband Tunji Balogun, and he turned 10 in July 2025.
