What is wrong with the scarf?
The tears was real, very real. Watch the video again.

Destined2win:
The only blunder I saw there was that Tiwa dressed like Imaobong, my uncle's house girl

Ioannes:
nothing's wrong with the scarf, just that we all know it's unlike Tiwa to put that on. it's a prop, a kind of trying to win sympathy for herself.

I do not wish her evil though, and I think it would be better if they patched things up and behave like the adults that they are for the sake of their child.

as for the tears, well...if you insist.

dare2differ:
I agree with you.

Tiwa cannot act to save her life. Regardless, there is no way the tears was fake.

Is it possible for me to trek from Lagos to London or America?

MOST ladies who carried the issue on their head like Jumoke bread are singles, divorced or soon to be divorced. They are the ones who do not fully understand the meaning of MARRIAGE. Most of them I see on my fb wall, I know their history. Some from broken homes, some got married only after they got pregnant for the guy and had to force his hands into marriage.

For all 45 minutes of Tiwa video, all I see is typical family issues. Issues that are normal in marriage. Most happily married couples deal with such issues weekly. It starts to die down after few years of living together. Reporting the issues to outsiders is always one sided. E.g Tiwa said she 'never cheated on her husband'. She did not say she never slept with Don Jazzy or Sid. Perhaps it all happened before marriage and Tunji gets flash backs.

As for spending on the man, it is a shame that she can say that out. If the man were to list his spendings on her or her issues, I am sure he will have plenty to say too. In my home, my wife can buy me a trouser of 200USD and broadcast to the world, while no one is there when I pay average of 800USD everytime she fills her online shopping baskets. If Tiwa asks for money for diapers from her husband, shes only doing it to spite him. Every family has their modus operandi. My wife will NEVER ask me for such because we have both made provisions and I deal with other things. When we go food shopping, we both understand she will pay fully while I handle school fees.

In my opinion, the marriage is too fresh to crash like that. Impatience, and social media killed the marriage. Every married man has had a day when he wished he never touched his wife with a long stick. On other days, you just sit and marvel at the gift God has given you. However, when family and Instagram start to get recognition in the marriage, then things get out of hand. I had to stop my wife from uploading family pictures on facebook. Family matters stay indoors.

Tiwa's shoddy attempt to tell her side of the story is poor. Married couples can easily relate to where their problem is coming from. Singles and single mothers can also quickly pounce on Tiwa's story to convince themselves on why marriage is not important. The only victim in all these is the child. Imagine one day when he's 10 years old and he sees this video on Youtube. He is going to be deprived of a decent upbringing due to parents who were keen to satisfy social media before satisfying poor Jamal.
For all the 'edible catering' and cheating stories, one thing was for sure, it would wane. Our mothers went through worse things and ended up being boss ladies in their homes. Men are strong headed but weak minded. We know our wives and know who we are playing with.

Overall, I pray that both of them can come together, leave family issues out of public eye. God be with them. Amin

Lastly, if you are one of those who is encouraging them to wash more dirty linen outside, stay away from them. God doesnt like those who break homes.

After the raging hullabaloo over TeeBillz’s bombshell, the superstar-brand-ambassador expectedly felt it was necessary to clear her part and protect her career in what could have been a major doom. It would be believed that she consulted her PR team for ‘professional’ advice on the best way to manage the looming crisis, and guess the ‘presumably brilliant piece’ they all came up with… a seemingly ‘staged’ video where she supposedly granted an interview with what was to be believed by fans and stakeholders as some off-the-cuff candor.

The interview was meant to be seen as being purely unprecedented with credit of hard-work given to the interviewer’s platform. Perhaps, many took it just as that… Whatever was said in the interview wouldn’t be so much of my concern, but taking the PR profession for granted and insulting the innocence of people and essence of the PR practice is what I might not be able to stomach in this situation.

Tiwa is no doubt a big brand in Africa’s entertainment scene, and whatever professional display done by her or her team may instantly become a model for others to follow. The video (or interview) was not just an error; it was a huge professional blunder capable of garnering adverse ripple effect that may be largely counter-productive for her career, and quite misleading for upcoming stars and PR professionals. Below are 5 blunders in the video.

Granting a Camera-Light-Action interview in a space of 24 hours
Since when did we start granting a controlled video interview to ‘immediately’ respond to snowballing crisis in the entertainment scene in Nigeria? In this part of the world, everything under camera, light, and action is believed to be staged and obviously pre-arranged. I’m sure this is one of the reasons Charles Novia earlier called Tiwa a Beyonce-clone. Perhaps, Tiwa and her team failed to realize that it wouldn’t be easy to completely be a Beyonce clone in the Nigerian environment. Her PR team should have known better to simply set up a single camera video with a head-on shot somewhere in the corner of her room or her living room and give possible impression of staged drama a very wide berth. This is if at all a video is found necessary (oh!  I understand her team really wanted to show the Nollywood sober mood in her costume with the repentant scarfing, and the largely exaggerated teary part with an obviously poor art director. If not, why a video?).

What!!! A 44-minute long video? (The shorter the merrier, my dear)
If her PR team were qualified professionals, they should have known that too much talk was one of the biggest threats to crisis communication. In fact, I would have wondered why even a 5-minute long video if at all it must be a video! In a sane country with a sane system, her too much talk in the bid to further exonerate herself and make TeeBillz the bad guy has landed her career in a massive doom. To bring back TeeBillz’s drinking habit and the alleged cocaine use is a ground of mere unreasonableness. Are brands and fans meant to congratulate ‘you’ for condoning, conniving and colluding with a partner who had been on the illegal side of the law for many years? Not to even say that connivance and collusion is a crime on the part of the law within marital issues. Yes, TeeBillz was unreasonable and also guilty for bringing back Tiwa’s alleged affairs with the three music stars since the law suggests that once you had condoned the action, it should not form basis for any further allegation. But, what Tiwa’s PR team failed to realize was that TeeBillz wasn’t a brand ambassador. Now, our supposed brand ambassador is also known as someone who condoned, connived and colluded with an alleged cocaine addict. What a shame! Hopefully, TeeBillz will not charge her for maligning his character, and then a part of the career and emotional distraction begins. Hopefully again, she is still a responsible brand ambassador after covering one of the world’s biggest criminal acts. What an insensitive charlatans called professional PR team.

The Nollywood Costume Stunt
If her PR team must create a Camera-Light-Action scene, why take away the Tiwa brand since we already know that the interview is a controlled one. The beginning of the failure of the video was the Nollywood’s repentant-born-again-Christian style. My conclusion was that the PR team had more of Nollywood movies than the real essence of PR practice.

The Artistic Tears ........you are a fool
If anyone wonders again why such long video, this part should be an obvious answer. Hey, if there was no such display of tears, how would the PR team succeed at bouncing the Tiwa brand back to dominate and have a controlling influence on people’s emotions? There was urgent need to create sympathy and leverage it to survive the lingering storm. But the tears rather came like they had been pre-planned, and there was either a written or unwritten script that suggested that “this must be done at so so line… we need you to break the tears; it’s the high point of the video.” Tiwa didn’t really need to break the tears, and if she must, silent tears would have been more penetrating than the loud and seemingly staged ones.

The Disappointing Interviewer
If there must be a great staged play, the actors must be carefully selected! Kunle Afolayan is a great man to consult here… I wonder how the interviewer (Treating her as just an interviewer here) planned to substantiate the veracity of the video with her tacky and completely unprofessional display. She clearly showed how pre-ratified the interview questions were with her conservative and carefully selected conduct. It was really my first time of seeing such supposedly high profile interview with little or nothing coming from the interviewer; all her questions were clearly ratified and her spontaneity was complete zero… No expressions, no reactions, no further queries, nothing! That was very poor, my dear!!



While there could be more to say, I have decided to, as much as practicable, avoid talking about the family and whatever they could be pooling through; my concern is more about the increasing abuse of the practice of Public Relations that is even more rampant in the entertainment industry. I hope Tiwa’s supposed video rejoinder will not snowball into even bigger crisis for herself, her family and her career.

What a PR-damage-control stunt; probably the biggest PR goof of the decade.
