The "Taste The Culture" Festival in Accra was buzzing with excitement, but the atmosphere soured when Nigerian superstar Tiwa Savage was pissed off backstage, reportedly due to a scheduling conflict.

In a video posted on X on December 27, 2025, the singer, known for her hits and electrifying performances, was scheduled to perform but found her time slot clashing with that of Ghanaian artiste Black Sherif.

The video captured a visibly upset Tiwa Savage expressing her frustration with the organisers.

"I'm going home. Don't tell me to calm down; I'm going home," she stated as an unknown man approached her, attempting to calm her down.

The situation quickly escalated, leaving fans and festival-goers in shock.

Despite the hiccup, Tiwa Savage eventually took the stage, shaking things up that night and encouraging fans to sing along.

Although there were a few bumps along the way, the concert turned out beautifully in the end, and everyone present enjoyed themselves, especially during the Christmas festive season.
