"I dated someone with a negative record, and it affected me' - Timaya

In a new interview with Punch, the Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa, Timaya said he dated someone who had a bad record and that affected him. Timaya and actress Empress Njamah dated for a few years. Their much publicized affair ended in 2009.
“You should not date somebody who already has a negative record. In my own case, it affected me at that time. I feel that a relationship should be between two people and not exposed to the rest of the world. Only a smart man is able to keep his relationship private."
“You see, Desmond Elliot and Jimmy Jatt are both married, but you will never see their wives in public. Naturally I’m a private person. The only thing that takes me out of my shell is my music, which is what I do for a living. It seems that the only thing people know about me is that ugly episode. So I don’t like to talk about it,” he says, adding that he has learnt a lesson from the experience." Timaya says

  39. Did he date some1 with a negative record? I disagree. His sudden found wealth go into his head then but its good to know that he's learning as person growing into a man now.

  40. "Negative record" as in what? A bad record in relation to past relationships or something else, the secret to a successful relationship is not direct or rigid, compromises and understanding is all that matters, and two people who forgive a lot!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Please it was a relationship, not an affair.An affair indicates that one or both parties was/were cheating on someone else.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Well if he didn't want to talk about it, he could've just said "no comment" to the question instead of refreshing everyone's memories of whatever relationship they had. People just talk too much.

  44. Well actually, this is going to backfire. I had completely erased this story from my hard drive (brain) and could only think of the last song you released that was being played on radio - a few years na? Well, now I am reminded of you and empress per your statements and I simply cant think of your songs. Sometimes, its best to let sleeping dogs lie. Perhaps this was a publicity stunt? Why not just release a new single that sells?

  59. Abeg take a back seat. Remember it was you who went to disgrace yourself because of the car you gave her as a gift and wanted it back. If Desmond Elliot and jimmy Jett's wives are not in the public eye, does that mean everybody should follow? You should remember the ugly episode that was instigated by your face

  127. Gibberish..
    Since he idealizes keeping girl friends and wives in the wrap like Elliot and Jatt, he then must have been an ossified fool to have gone chasing a babe who was already in the public eye as an actress, only to imagine he could wrap her up in the privacy of his bedroom for life...just because they are dating!!!
    Should I have a daughter, I will warn her against tramps like Timaya!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  128. some of you posting comment here seems to know nothing about love so am not surprised if u call timaya a fool or tout..when u love someone when u are so blind and u already build ur life around someone u will do all in ur power to always have the person to fall in love is normal once u in it for real then u a real man..timaya is a real man he loves the gurl and fought for it he got embarrassed create scene that is the kind of man that worth dyn for not a coward that will be forming hardcore dyn inside and forming hard man like he is not feeling any pain or missing the gurl..u all can think like the weak human u are but if u ask me they are some love that are worth fighting for even if u lose at least u made a move my parent will say when u lose lose with excuse...if the gurl comes back or have a fucked up relationship timaya can come to the press and or tell the gurl "i tried to stop u"

  129. dis empress it will be good if u look for some of her X they will tell u are story...and i know if she can see the future she wont free timaya and who tell una say na star no be timaya saga make un know her whe she dey act che nollyhood don dey pay 100k per role am sure she was still collecting may br 30 or 50k max then and bros timaya never blow na still managing and packaging baba dey use and babe wey dey hungry kuku switch lane so this i wan bliv say na her way she is a love seller...
