Nigerian Afrobeats singer Tiwa Savage revealed that she has been practicing celibacy for the past three years. In a recent interview with The Breakfast Club, she explained that her decision stems from being single since her last relationship ended. Savage said she only feels the urge for intimacy when she is in love and is not interested in casual sex; she needs a romantic relationship to consider it. She also mentioned that she does not own sex toys, joking that they could make a suitable Christmas gift.
Savage’s comments follow her earlier remarks about a toxic relationship with a Nigerian public figure. She described the partnership as “disrespectful,” noting that her partner exploited the secrecy surrounding their affair to cheat on her. After tolerating the infidelity for a time, she ultimately chose to end the relationship.
Her choice to remain celibate reflects a commitment to self‑respect and a desire for meaningful connections. The experience of a toxic partnership appears to have shaped her approach to intimacy, emphasizing emotional connection and mutual respect. As a prominent figure in the African music industry, Savage’s candid discussion of her personal life may resonate with fans and encourage others to prioritize their emotional and physical well‑being. By sharing her story, she contributes to broader conversations about healthy relationships, consent, and self‑love, helping to reduce stigma around celibacy and toxic relationships and fostering a more nuanced understanding of these complex issues.
