TIWA SAVAVGE'S HEARTFELT MESSAGE TO HER MUM

Tiwa Savage’s Sweet Message on Her Mum’s Birthday May Make You Tear Up

Today, Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage‘s mother Cecilia Savage is a year older.

To celebrate her loving mother, she took to social media to share a sweet and emotional message about how her mother helped her get through bullying.

Read;

“During my high school days I was bullied for several years, I would get jumped on the bus, head flushed down the toilet and so on, it got so bad that I did something drastic and life threatening because I was so depressed.

My mother was called to school on several occasions and each time she came she would ask to see the other students bullying me and would always pray for us all. Of course they would joke and laugh but my mother was always so calm and reserved and she would take me home, cook me Naija food (we were living in London at the time) and she would make me realize how loved I was and how rich my culture is, how beautiful I am being a Nigerian girl (I was bullied for being African, skinny, dark and I had a strong naija accent) what my mother didn’t do was fight, shout or argue with the other girls or their parents (who were at times very rude and disrespectful), instead she showered me with love and reminded me where I was from.

One of the many reasons why she is my hero, my role model, biggest inspiration, my best friend, my mummy @celiasavage I celebrate you today on your birthday. Anyone that has met you has experience what a calm, shy, gentle but very hip mummy you are.
