Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Tiwa Savage has taken to social media to express deep frustration over visa issues that may cost her significant professional and personal moments.
In a heartfelt message shared via her Snapchat, the award-winning singer revealed that her passport is still being withheld, leaving her uncertain about her visa status just days before a major shoot in London tied to her upcoming album.
“I don’t even know whether my visa was approved or not. All I know is that my passport is not out,” she wrote.
The delay, according to Tiwa, could severely affect the timing of her album release and derail key promotional activities scheduled around the shoot.
“I have a huge shoot in London, and if I miss it, I miss so many opportunities surrounding my album and its release date. I feel like crying,” she added.
The emotional toll doesn’t end with her career. Tiwa also shared that the travel plans she had made for her son Jamil’s 10th birthday have now been ruined.
“Jamil’s birthday is tomorrow, and the travel plans I had for him are all ruined. My heart is so heavy.”
As a single mother juggling fame and family, Tiwa concluded her message with a moment of vulnerability and hope.
“I’m just going to switch off today. Praying that God gives life and hope tomorrow.”
Fans React with Support
Tiwa’s honesty has sparked an outpouring of sympathy and encouragement from fans, many of whom praised her strength and transparency. Supporters have flooded her comment sections with prayers, urging her to stay hopeful and reassuring her that brighter days lie ahead.
As Tiwa Savage continues to push boundaries in her music career, this moment is a stark reminder of the often unseen challenges even celebrities face behind the scenes.
