Nigerian music legend Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idibia has publicly condemned his family for allegedly interfering in his marriage to Natasha Osawuru, claiming that his wife is now receiving death threats as a result of their actions.
The singer’s statement comes in response to a petition filed by his family to the Inspector-General of Police, which accused Osawuru of assault, bigamy, and financial misconduct.
The petition reportedly alleged that Natasha physically assaulted 2Baba in the United Kingdom and Abuja and withheld his personal documents, including his passport.
In a now-viral video, 2Baba rejected his family’s narrative, arguing that their attempts to save him are instead destroying his life and unfairly tarnishing Natasha’s character.
“I’m a grown man, and I believe I have the right to be with whoever I want to be with, I am perfectly okay and I recently performed at a show in Abuja. Yes, Natasha and I had a quarrel, which is normal between couples, but this is getting out of hand. Natasha is getting death threats right now. My family, who claim they want to save me, have actually destroyed me and damaged someone’s daughter’s character,” the singer said.
2Baba described the petition and the surrounding rumours as fabricated lies and stories, dismissing them as nonsense, and expressed deep hurt and stress over the situation.
He appealed for an end to the harassment and urged his family and others to respect his privacy.
The controversy escalated after 2Baba’s former managers, Kaka Igbokwe and Lori Tosan, appeared on a live session hosted by media personality Daddy Freeze.
During the broadcast, they accused Natasha of seeking full control over the singer’s finances and career.
2Baba intervened in the live session, instructing the former managers to stop discussing his private life.
However, shortly afterward, heated arguments between him and Natasha were audible off-camera, before the live broadcast abruptly ended.
The singer promised to address further details in the coming days, emphasizing that while he understands concern for his well-being, the harassment of his wife and the intrusion into his private life are unacceptable.
