Afrobeats superstar Tiwa Savage threw an Arsenal-themed birthday party for her son Jamil, who turned 11 on July 23, 2026. The celebration featured football-themed decorations, and in one video, Jamil and his friends shouted, 'Ronaldo is the best,' as they posed for a group photo. Another clip showed the birthday boy being serenaded with a birthday song by his mother and friends.
Emotional Tribute to Her Son
Tiwa Savage posted a heartfelt message on Instagram, where she reflected on how motherhood has deepened her understanding of God’s love. She wrote: 'Guys being mama jam jam has taught me more about God’s love than I ever imagined. The way I worry about him, celebrate him, protect him, forgive him, believe in him … the way I’d give anything (even my own life) for him. It made me stop and think … this sounds so familiar.'
She continued: 'Because if I can love my son this deeply as an imperfect human being, how much more does our perfect Heavenly Father love us? Maybe that’s why God calls us His children. Every hug, every prayer, every sacrifice, every moment of unconditional love I feel for Jamil is just a tiny reflection of the love God has always had for us.'
Close Mother-Son Bond
Tiwa Savage, who fondly calls Jamil 'JamJam,' expressed her commitment to raising him to be a respectful and kind individual. She said: 'Happy 11th birthday to my greatest blessing, my answered prayer, my best friend. Watching you grow is one of the greatest privileges of my life. I love you more than words will ever be able to say. And even that love is only a glimpse of how much God loves you, JamJam.'
The singer and her son are known for their close bond. Over the years, Tiwa has been vocal about her intentional approach to shaping Jamil into a kind man. The Arsenal-themed party highlighted Jamil’s love for football, with the club’s colors and memorabilia featured prominently.
