Tiwa Savage opened up to city people magazine on how she met Teebillz and ended up being his wife..
"I met Tee Billz in Los Angeles at a Timaya concert actually and I was at that time looking for a manager and he didn’t listen to my CD I had sent him unfortunately. So when I saw him, I was a bit angry, I was like “I dropped my songs a few weeks ago and I am the next big thing and you are missing out”…and he was like, ”wow, calm down, who are you?And then funny enough the next thing he said was, “I am going to marry you.”
On his proposal, she said
We had actually come back from Dubai a few days earlier and spent a week there, I actually thought he was going to propose to me there. I was hoping he would propose while we were in Dubai, so day 1, day2, day 3, all the way to the 7th day and nothing happened. I was a bit disappointed and was worried like “Oh My God, is he ever going to propose?” But a few days later on my birthday, he said to me he thinks we should go out with some friends, so I was like…hell no! I don’t want to go anywhere. I want to be at home! I want to reflect on my life (laughs).
So my friend Elohor called me and said everybody is waiting for you, just come out so I finally did, then it happened, he went on his knees and I didn’t even wait to hear what he was saying because everybody was screaming so much. I don’t even know if he actually asked me to marry him but I just screamed yes (laughs)

An Appeal to Bayelsa State Government
The Executive Governor of Bayelsa State, Your Excellency Sir.
Education as we know is the bedrock of modern strategic development's in every society. It is the morale of societal growths, socio-economic status and welfare of the common inhabitants and in which trades and businesses are polished in and around the world we live in. For, I strongly believe that it was on this light your agency granted the foreign scholarship to Bayelsans to study in the diasporas of Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, etc.
Distinguished Governor Sir, Bayelsa State scholars in the aforementioned countries as I write to you, the sent students of your tenure are due of their school fees, accommodation fees and monthly allowances plus medical insurance bills for nearly two years now. And some Doctorate's degree "PhD" students that were already in pursuance of their programmes before the state awarded grant are due three years of payment.
These students are still hopeful that with the state funded aids they would have the opportunities to make completion of the various career programmes, obtain the degrees in their prestigious institutions and bring forth the knowledge to work for the common good of our fatherland.
Your Honour Sir, let me use this medium to communicate to your agency that without these payments, your tenure sent students of the aforesaid countries would not be able to complete their faculties and attain the purposeful goals for which they were sent out for.
Excellency Sir, bear with me, please. That I have not the slightest intentions to sound bias in any way to your agency "The Restoration Team", Bayelsa State Scholarship Board "BSSB" nor the State Ministry of Education, neither Bayelsa State Government as a whole.
The truth is upon honour to your respectful person and states developmental agenda, especially, in education it should be carried with curry candour to encourage the young's of Bayelsa State.
The students studying afar off our country home's could stray without the extrapolating mind's eye to supporting them financially and prayerfully. Especially, in the Eastern Bloc's that have no tangible part time student's jobs to enable them work and take upon a rainy day for supportive means. Circumstances regarding this, might jeopardise their active learning faculties and the very knowledge they were willing to absorb.
The Governor, Sir Henry Serieke Dickson. Hence, BSSB should stanch sending conundrum letters to their various institutions promising payments without actually acting upon them. For it only give an inequitable sight to the students and home country.
Your Honour Sir, all in all, in a nut shell to the benevolence of the founding fathers, they say education is the very compass of Bayelsa victory and that the future of the state rest confidently in the continuous education of the people, no doubt Sir. To this regard, I humbly solicit your distinguished office and good nurture for a considerable look, please.
And I shall be proud and greatly pleased of your impress decision and that thanks to this, the students would have the privileges to complete their programmes and return home for active service as good ambassadors of Bayelsa State and Nigeria beyond.
Thank you and God bless you Sir.
Yours respectfully,
Japhet Otombozibeye Otonye
