Tiwa Savage sugar mama confession stirs debate as she opens up on relationships, love, and her view on being a second wife.

The “Somebody’s Son” singer didn’t hold back as she confessed that, while she sometimes feels like a sugar mama, it’s not a title she embraces willingly.

“I’m like a sugar mama, but I don’t want to be,” she said with a laugh. “If they’re in their 50s or already married, maybe I can be a second wife.”

Her comments, which sparked both laughter and surprise from the podcast hosts, have since gone viral, igniting mixed reactions across social media platforms.

During the discussion, Tiwa also flirted with the idea of becoming a second wife — a statement she admitted might not sit well with many women.

“Oh my God, I don’t know how this is going to sound. I feel like a lot of women are going to have a problem with me saying that,” she said.

She was reacting to a conversation around whether first wives receive more respect and care in marriage. Her response has fuelled conversation around polygamy, gender dynamics, and relationship expectations in modern African society.

In a separate moment from the interview, the award-winning artist surprised listeners by revealing she had only recently learned about a particular sexual act — a confession that added even more colour to an already unfiltered conversation.

While some fans praised Tiwa for her honesty and openness, others criticised her remarks as inappropriate or misleading, especially given her influence over young women.

Social media remains sharply divided, with discussions ranging from the pressures of modern relationships to the evolving role of women in Nigerian pop culture.
