Renowned Afrobeat sensation, Tiwa Savage, has announced a temporary hiatus from performing as she grapples with a virus that has necessitated an extended period of strict vocal rest spanning several months.
In a heartfelt letter addressed to her dedicated fan base, affectionately known as the “Savage Soldiers,” Tiwa Savage expressed her disappointment at not being able to grace the stage with her dynamic performances. Performing is not just a profession for her but a deep-seated love.

In her message to fans, Tiwa Savage stated:
To my dear Savage Soldiers, I’ve been fig@ting off a virus for the past few weeks and was today firmly instructed to be on strict vocal rest for the next rew months. I will unfortunately have to postpone all performances, including my first-ever headline arena show in London. I’m heartbroken and devastated, but I have to do this to save what’s left of my voice. I’m so sorry. I love you all and promise to be back performing once I’m fully healed.”
These trying times follow a series of incidents that have placed Tiwa Savage in the spotlight for reasons other than her music.
