Social media is buzzing with mixed reactions after legendary singer Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idibia announced his plan to marry Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru, following his troubled marriage with Annie Macaulay.
In a viral Instagram video, 2Baba clarified that Natasha had nothing to do with his separation from Annie. Expressing his deep admiration for her, he boldly stated: “Yes, I love her. I want to marry her.”
The African Queen hitmaker also defended Natasha against critics who accused her of being a “home breaker,” calling her a “young, brilliant, and amazing woman.”
“Love or Money?” – Nigerians Weigh In
Many Nigerians questioned 2Baba’s motives, especially since Natasha is the granddaughter of Edo billionaire Gabriel Igbinedion.
@Sundayjctrucks: “Wait, really? I didn’t see this coming! How long has this been going on? This is definitely a hot topic!”
@olakunle_don: “Tuface, think this through. Is this about love, money, power, or influence?”
@labake31: “Do you want to marry her, or are you marrying into wealth?”
@KenFelix6: “Be careful! Edo women don’t play. If you break her heart, you’ll regret it.”
However, some supported 2Baba’s decision.
@averybadboy_x: “At least he’s honest. If he’s no longer with Annie and wants to marry Natasha, what’s the issue? If it were Annie moving on, people would be cheering her.”
Others criticized his approach.
@foodnetwork: “The worst part? They’re using the Nigerian flag for this nonsense. Are you our president or is Natasha our First Lady?”
@nubiala_mbk: “Oh God… Do you have to embarrass Annie like this? Just marry your mistress quietly and leave us out of it.”
@ira_isyml: “It’s baffling how a man can publicly humiliate his wife, yet another woman stands by his side as if nothing happened.”
@itsabyl: “The one who stays silent after a breakup is usually the one truly hurt. I hope Annie heals and realizes no one will love her more than she loves herself.”
While 2Baba stands firm on his decision, the debate rages on—is this true love or a power move?
