Popular Afrobeats stars Tiwa Savage and Seyi Shay have finally reconciled, bringing an end to their five-year-long feud.
This development comes about six months after Seyi Shay, in an interview, expressed her willingness to make peace with Tiwa Savage.
The rift between the two artists became public in 2021 following a heated confrontation at a salon in Lagos.
Tiwa Savage had previously explained that the conflict stemmed from a diss track and accusations that she attempted to block opportunities for other female artistes.
In a now-viral video circulating online on Thursday, the two singers were seen sharing a warm embrace, drawing emotional reactions from fans.
The moment occurred during the grand finale of the ‘Berklee in Nigeria Class of 2026 Graduation Concert’ held in Lagos.
