Nigerian music superstar Tiwa Savage has opened up about how she once lost a multi-million-naira endorsement deal after refusing to travel with a company executive who tried to take advantage of her.

Speaking on the incident, Tiwa explained that the company had offered her one of the biggest deals of her career at the time.

However, things changed when an executive insisted she accompany him on a trip, and she immediately turned him down.

According to her, the refusal to give in to the inappropriate demand cost her the deal. She said it was one of the early experiences that made her tougher and more determined to succeed without compromising her values.

Tiwa noted that the entertainment industry is filled with situations where women are pressured to trade their dignity for opportunities, but she has always chosen to stand her ground even when it meant losing out.

This has sparked conversations online, with fans praising her courage and resilience in the face of exploitation.
