Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Tiwa Savage has sparked social media chatter after revealing that President Bola Tinubu is her next-door neighbour in Ikoyi, Lagos.

In a recent interview with content creator Korty, the singer described her current home on Bourdillon Road as a “safe haven,” citing both its security and proximity to the President’s residence. Tiwa added that the house is temporary, as she is in the process of building a new home at an undisclosed location, expected to be ready next year.

“I feel safe. I actually feel a little bit important ’cause the president’s house is in front,” she said.

Her comments quickly drew mixed reactions online. Some fans praised her for maintaining a quiet and secure lifestyle, while others criticized celebrities for allegedly enjoying special privileges amid widespread governance challenges.
