Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has accused some members of his family of worsening tensions in his marriage to Natasha under the guise of trying to “save” him.
The controversy reportedly began in the United Kingdom, where Natasha was allegedly heard raising her voice during a heated argument with the singer. The confrontation drew the attention of UK authorities and led to 2Baba’s brief arrest, according to reports circulating online.
The situation escalated during a recent Instagram Live conversation with broadcaster Daddy Freeze, where 2Baba and Natasha exchanged words on camera, alarming viewers with the intensity of their dispute. Viral clips of the argument have since fueled speculation about deeper cracks in the marriage, with fans expressing concern for the singer’s emotional and mental state.
Observers also noted messages from 2Baba’s brother, Hyacinth Idibia, which many interpreted as a sign of the family’s increasing involvement and concern.
Breaking his silence, 2Baba took to social media to reject the narrative that he needed rescuing, insisting that some family members were actually making matters worse.
“This whole thing has gotten dangerously out of hand. I am not just going to be quiet anymore. I feel I have to say some facts here. I am a grown man, and believe I have the right to be with whoever I want to be with. My family has in the pretext of trying to save me has actually destroyed me, and has killed someone’s daughter’s character. Natasha is getting death threats right now,” 2Baba said in a viral video.
“Fine, we have had our quarrels, but who doesn’t quarrel with their spouses. This is getting out of hand, I am perfectly okay. Everyone has been seeing me out there, I did my show recently in Abuja, and a lot of people were there. How do you say you want to save me but you are messing the whole thing up. This is unacceptable. It is so unfair.
“I have the right to be with whoever I want to be with. I am not a child. I have always been a quiet, peaceful person, but this has become too much. My family did this with Annie, this same thing, we all have our differences, but this is becoming so dangerous right now.”
