Nigerian music icon, Innocent Idibia, better known as 2Baba, has once again captured headlines—this time for matters of the heart. The award-winning singer recently hinted at a romantic relationship with Natasha Osawaru, a lawmaker in Edo State, sparking widespread speculation.
This revelation follows closely on the heels of his separation from his wife, Annie Idibia, fueling conversations about his next steps. 2Baba’s surprise appearance at the Edo State House of Assembly during a plenary session on Monday only intensified rumors, especially after a video of him and Osawaru at a Lagos nightclub surfaced online.
On Tuesday, the singer took to Instagram to address the growing buzz. In a video post captioned:
“To Whom It May kwansighn. #I don yarn my truth. Feel free to continue alleging. We shall all be alright,”
He tackled the swirling rumors head-on, making it clear that Osawaru had no part in his split from Annie.
2Baba stated:
“I’ve seen so many things being said, so many false narratives and malicious rumors after I posted what I posted. Yes, I said what I said. But let’s be clear—Hon. Natasha has been unfairly dragged and labeled as a homebreaker. She’s a young, brilliant, and amazing woman, and she had nothing to do with what happened between me and Annie.”
In a bold declaration, he added:
“Yes, I love her. She is amazing, she is cool, and I want to marry her.”
Following his statement, Natasha Osawaru quickly became the top-trending topic on X (formerly Twitter) by Wednesday morning, as social media users erupted with mixed reactions.
