‘Stop trying to fix broken people’ – Timi Dakolo warns against enduring abuse in the name of love

Singer Timi Dakolo has warned people in abusive relationships against enduring mistreatment in the name of love, stressing that it is not their responsibility to fix people with destructive behaviour.

The singer shared the message in a post on X, where he challenged the belief that the amount of suffering a person tolerates is a measure of their love or patience.

“Dear anybody, suffering is not a proof of love. The amount of abuse you can take is not what patience is all about. It is not your job to fix broken people. Destructive tendencies is not character flaws. Even trained therapist gives up sometimes,” he wrote.

Dakolo’s message emphasised the importance of recognising abusive behaviour and understanding that love should not require someone to endure harm in an attempt to change another person.
