Nigerian singer Timaya, also known as Inetimi Odon, recently shared his perspective on dating Nigerian singers, stating that he personally couldn’t pursue a romantic relationship with them.
In a candid interview, the “Dem Mama” crooner expressed his belief that relationships between Nigerian individuals often face challenges due to shared foundations and upbringings, likening such unions to a toxic dynamic resembling “police and thief.” Timaya disclosed that his current partner is not Nigerian, highlighting his preference for relationships outside his cultural background.
This revelation comes amid Timaya’s reflection on the difficulties of finding true love, a sentiment he shared with his followers two years prior. He expressed concern over the elusive nature of love, prompting a discussion among fans about the challenges they also face in the realm of romantic relationships.
Timaya’s personal life has been the subject of public scrutiny, particularly regarding his relationships and fatherhood. With two baby mamas and three children, Timaya has navigated the complexities of co-parenting, particularly with his first baby mama, Barbara. Despite their romantic relationship ending due to Timaya’s involvement with another woman, Barbara emphasized their commitment to effective co-parenting, acknowledging Timaya’s dedication to ensuring their children’s well-being.
