See The Long List Of Nigerian Female Artists Who Have ‘Second Hand’ Husbands

merged

I came across this article online and decided I must share with all my loyal and esteem readers.

Read and enjoy: –

Do you all remember when singer-writer Etcetera wrote in his weekly Punch column, an article about how it has become a trend for female celebrities in Nigeria to marry a second hand husband (his term for a man that has either being married before or has children with another woman) he didn’t get much attention until singer Tiwa Savage and hubby Teebillz, sensing he had written the piece to sub them, replied.

Their reply sparked off controversy, with many chastising the couple for being too harsh on the singer when he did not expressly mention their names in his piece.

However, if one looks critically at Etcetera’s analogy, the debate about whether or not he had the duo in mind would seem irrelevant compared to the truth contained in his piece.

His theory is not far-fetched, as there abound countless female celebrities who fall into this category.

Notable amongst them are:

TIWA SAVAGE: Mavin Record’s first lady, Tiwa Savage, tied the nuptial knot with her manager, Tunji Balogun popularly known as Tee Billz earlier in the year but the fact that she joined in matrimony with a man who already has a baby out of wedlock from a woman based abroad.
