- The rumoured relationship between the two has ignited a social media firestorm, leaving fans, critics, and curious onlookers buzzing with opinions and speculations.
The Nigerian entertainment and political worlds have collided in a whirlwind of drama, with Natasha Osawaru Igbinedion, a 31-year-old politician, and music legend 2Face Idibia at the centre of it all.
The rumoured relationship between the two has ignited a social media firestorm, leaving fans, critics, and curious onlookers buzzing with opinions and speculations.
The frenzy began when 2Baba openly addressed his feelings for Natasha during a recent deleted Instagram post.
He described her as a “young, brilliant, amazing woman” and stated emphatically, “Yes, I love her, she is amazing, she is cool, I want to marry her.”
He also clarified that Natasha has no involvement in the ongoing issues between him and his wife, Annie Idibia.
This candid admission sent shockwaves through social media, with fans and critics alike scrambling to dissect his words and speculate about the nature of their relationship.
Social media platforms, particularly X and Instagram, exploded with reactions to the news as users debated the situation.
Many fans criticised 2Baba’s lifestyle, with one commenter stating, “A 50-year-old man living the life of a confused teenage boy. Lust has destroyed your soul, and that’s why no matter how many women you meet, you’ll never find peace or real satisfaction. You need years of healing.”
Others expressed disappointment in Natasha, questioning her decision to get involved with a man who has a complicated marital history.
“I just realised that at the end of the day, no matter how successful and brilliant a woman is, trust her to make a poor choice with a partner.
Imagine all this accomplishment to embroil yourself with a man who has 7 children from 4 women and has openly said he doesn’t believe in monogamy. How are you brilliant if this man is your standard?"
The confirmation of 2Baba’s relationship with Natasha comes amid an ongoing public fallout with his wife, Annie Idibia.
Once considered one of Nigeria’s most admired couples, their marriage has steadily unravelled, with their struggles frequently making headlines.
Reports suggest that the two have been living separately for some time, and divorce proceedings are now underway.
Despite enduring years of challenges—including accusations of infidelity and emotional strain—many fans had hoped for reconciliation.
