Tiwa Savage Pauses London Show to Reconnect with Former English Teacher (VIDEO)

Nigerian music star Tiwa Savage momentarily interrupted her performance at a London event after recognizing a familiar face from her past—her former English teacher.

While performing at Little Simz’ Meltdown Festival, Savage unexpectedly paused her act after spotting the teacher among the audience. The artist then stepped down from the stage and made her way directly to the man, exchanging a heartfelt hug and engaging in a short conversation.

In the viral video now circulating on social media, the singer can be seen joyfully approaching the teacher while exclaiming, “This is my English teacher!”—a moment that drew loud cheers and applause from the excited crowd.

This memorable gesture comes just a few days after the singer’s estranged ex-husband, Tee Billz, publicly criticized her on social media. Tee Billz alleged that Tiwa had not been spending enough time with their son, Jamal, and further accused her manager of excessively overbooking her schedule.
