“I’ve never met anyone like him who’s so selfless.
A few people might think our messages to each other is just for the gram, but honestly, 1000%, it’s very very real. Contractually yes, I guess I’m not with Mavin, but I don’t think I can ever leave Mavin. It’s an emotional feeling. I’m part of the family. I’m still close to everyone,” she said.
Tiwa who recently took a break from social media explained the rationale behind her decision.
“When I first took a break, I was just getting caught up in social media, checking my phone once I wake up. Then I was like, I’m just gonna take one week off and I started enjoying it. Then one week became two weeks, and two weeks became a month and that was it.”
“Within that period we finalised the deal and I was like, maybe it’s time to rebrand and start afresh. I didn’t actually start it because of this deal. I just wanted to take a break. Then I started deleting pictures because my page looks cluttered and I wanted my page to have a theme.”
