Contrary to speculations and concerns raised by his family, veteran musician Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has been spotted in public with his new love interest, Natasha Osawuru.
The celebrated singer, whose family recently filed a petition with the Department of State Services (DSS) alleging he had gone missing, was seen casually browsing hair products alongside Osawuru at a store.
A viral video that surfaced on captured 2Baba and Osawuru shopping together, putting to rest fears about his safety.
This sighting comes in the wake of reports that his mother, Rose Idibia, had made a public plea to Osawuru, urging her to stay away from her son, especially since his divorce from his estranged wife, Annie Idibia, has yet to be finalized.
Sources close to the singer suggest that 2Baba is simply taking time away from family tensions and has chosen to spend it with Osawuru.
The ongoing divorce proceedings have reportedly put the artist in a challenging emotional state, and he has opted to maintain a low profile amid the situation.
Adding to the controversy, a separate video released on Thursday shows 2Baba proposing to Osawuru, further confirming their relationship.
This move has sparked mixed reactions from fans and family members, particularly given his unsettled marital status.
Osawuru, a politician and member of the Edo State House of Assembly, represents the Egor Constituency under the Peoples Democratic Party.
She was elected in April 2023 and hails from the Egor Local Government Area of Edo State.
While his family continues to express concerns, 2Baba’s recent public appearances suggest he is safe and very much in control of his decisions.
Whether this new chapter in his life will lead to long-term happiness remains to be seen, but one thing is clear—he is not missing; he is simply moving forward on his own terms.
