Netizens Accuse Tiwa Savage of Hypocrisy for Celebrating Arsenal Win Amid Oyo Kidnapping Crisis
Tiwa Savage joined Arsenal fans in North London to celebrate the club’s first Premier League title in 22 years. Videos show her dancing, posing for photos and wearing the team jersey amid the street party. Her celebrations drew sharp criticism on social media because they came days after the abduction of 39 pupils and seven teachers in Oyo State. Many Nigerians felt she was tone-deaf to the ongoing crisis at home. The singer’s earlier comment that the kidnapping “was not trending enough” sparked backlash, forcing her to later express that the news “broke my heart” as a mother. Critics have since contrasted her public mourning with her festive mood at the parade. Reactions divided along party lines. Some applauded her fan passion, while others called her out for selective outrage. The debate highlights tensions over celebrity responsibility during national tragedies.
