Meanwhile, Songstress Tiwa Savage has hinted at sex for favours currently ongoing in the Nigerian music industry.
The singer revealed this during a recent interview on Beat FM, likening the occasion to that of American music executive, Diddy’s.
The singer hinted that the music industry might have its own version of Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, the American music executive who is alleged to be involved in sex trafficking.
In March, properties owned by Combs in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by Homeland Security as part of an ongoing federal investigation primarily focused on allegations of sex trafficking. The musician is also facing multiple court cases over allegations of sexual assault which span back to the 1990s.
Tiwa Savage without giving further details stated that there will come a time when the person she is talking about gets apprehended.
