Nigeria: Tiwa Savage escapes law suit over estranged husband

Cool FM presenter, Freeze, has revealed that he prevented a lawyer from slamming Mavin Records singer, Tiwa Savage, with a law suit.



According to Freeze, the lawyer, who introduced himself as a Senior Advocated of Nigeria (SAN), cited character assassination of Savage's husband, Tee Billz, as the reason for the law suit.

However, sweet talking Freeze was able to convince the lawyer from pursuing the case, which would have created a huge financial burden for Tiwa Savage.

"If you think Tiwa holds the Aces now, think again, because a gentleman called me earlier today, introducing himself as a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN), and that he want to file a lawsuit against Tiwa on Behalf of TBillz, sighting character assassination and demanding a scary amount of money in punitive damages", Freeze said.

"He went on to say that the destruction to Billz reputation is irreparable. He went on to inform me that legally, the onus would be on Tiwa to prove that he actually used the drugs which won’t be an easy task."

"I had to plead with him for almost an hour before he could change his mind", he added.

Freeze appealed to observers to avoid taking sides in the marital matter involving Savage and Tee Billz as this would be in the best interest of their son, Jamil.

"In the same vein, if you are a die hard Billz fan damaging Tiwa’s reputation won’t help him as she remains the mother of his son Jamil."

"Tiwa is also an important factor in the determination of Jamil’s moral upbringing, as he would be in her custody till he attains majority."

This will be Freeze's third opinion piece since the drama started. He recently apologised to Tiwa Savage for blaming her concerning the interview she had with ThisDay's Azuka Ogujuiba.

In the interview, Savage revealed all the private matters concerning Tee Billz, including his use of cocaine.
