by · The Eagle Online

Popular Nigerian singer and songwriter, Tiwatope Omolara Savage, popularly known as Tiwa Savage, has publicly confronted Lagos-based influencer Dami Foreign on social media, following his comments about her six-year-old son, Jamil.

The award-winning singer took to X on Tuesday morning to call out the influencer, accusing him of repeatedly targeting her as part of a long-running agenda.

Savage stated that while she has ignored past attacks, bringing her child into the conversation was a line that should never have been crossed.

This followed a post by the influencer that referenced the singer’s child.

In the post, Dami Foreign wrote: “Omo, why’s Tiwa Savage son frowning?”

The comment prompted an immediate response from the Afrobeat icon, who described the reference as crossing the line.

Responding directly on X, Savage warned the influencer to desist from mentioning her child.

She accused Foreign of crossing a personal boundary and pursuing a “paid agenda” to tarnish her image, invoking a Yoruba curse and daring him to mention her child again.

“I dare you to post anything about my child again and THIS WILL MOVE BEYOND TWITTER,” she wrote.

“You see that I never cared about your paid agenda to bring me down and you’ve been doing it for a long time. You talking about my child is crossing the line,” she said in another post.

Savage also referenced past comments allegedly made by the influencer about her, including remarks she described as malicious.

“Dami with my FULL CHEST e no go better for you. You even posted that you wanted me to die young… Back to sender,” she stated.

The influencer has, in the past, made several posts about the singer. On January 3, 2026, he wrote, “Make we forget hype, Tiwa Savage don dey old o.”

Similar comments questioning the singer’s relevance and age were posted in May 2025 and September 2025.

In a separate post, Savage appeared to dismiss what she described as the influencer’s fixation on her.

“The obsession with me is loud but your relevance is missing,” she wrote.

Her response has since sparked widespread reactions online, with many fans and celebrities debating the boundaries of online criticism and the limits of Nigeria’s social media “banter culture.”
