Responding to the question, she noted that she was very famous and used to drive herself before, but that changed after she was almost robbed in December last year.

Tems makes decision

While on the show with Big Boy TV, the music star, who celebrated Grammy nominees last year, stated that she can no longer drive in Nigeria without an escort before her and behind her.

According to the ‘Free Mind’ crooner, area boys can identify her, and she does not want the experience of last year to repeat itself again.
