Tiwa Savage, the Afrobeats Superstar, has made a bold jump into acting as the lead and co-director of a new film.
The singer of "Somebody's Son" revealed on Wednesday that she would make her acting debut in the film "Water and Garri," her first ever.

She posted a photo of herself on the set and with the filmmakers to Instagram and captioned it, "This is about to be an ICONIC moment. My first calling and joint-directing outing with @meji Alabi, the GOAT.
