Tiwa Savage
Nigerian music star, Tiwa Savage, has shared her perspective on the timing of her career breakthrough, describing it as part of a divine plan.
Speaking on a recent episode of The Receipts podcast, the 44-year-old singer revealed that she believes God intentionally delayed her success to inspire others, particularly young women who may feel uncertain about their future.
“I feel like God has done this on purpose,” Tiwa said. “God delayed my success for a purpose. I used to be like, why wasn’t I successful in my twenties? I started succeeding in my thirties.”
The award-winning artiste explained that her journey serves as encouragement for women who might feel pressured to achieve success early in life.
“It’s to bless other people. It’s to bless that 25-year-old girl who’s scared about what the future holds,” she said. “If she opens my page and sees that I started in my thirties, she would be like, ‘I still have time.’”
Tiwa Savage, who began her career in her late twenties and gained global recognition in her thirties, has since become one of Africa’s most celebrated female artistes.
Her story resonates with fans and listeners, offering hope and reassurance that success can come at any stage of life.
