Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, professionally known as 2Baba, has unfollowed his wife, Natasha Osawaru, on Instagram following an alleged public confrontation at a nightclub opening in Abuja on Friday.
According to multiple social media accounts, Osawaru arrived at the venue accompanied by several individuals and approached the singer’s vehicle before police officers intervened. The incident occurred hours before 2Baba was scheduled to perform at the club’s launch event.
Following the altercation, the singer reportedly informed Osawaru on Friday that he no longer wished to continue their relationship. By Sunday morning, checks confirmed that 2Baba had removed Osawaru from his Instagram following list, while she continues to follow his account.
The development marks a significant escalation in what has been a turbulent period for the couple. Nearly two months ago, the African Queen singer departed their marital residence and subsequently blocked Osawaru from contacting him.
Neither party has issued an official statement regarding the weekend’s events. Representatives for 2Baba did not respond to requests for comment by press time.
The singer, a pioneer of contemporary Nigerian music with a career spanning over two decades, has faced intense public scrutiny over his personal life in recent months. Osawaru, a politician serving in the Edo State House of Assembly, married the artist in a ceremony that drew significant media attention.
Industry observers note that the situation reflects the challenges public figures face when private disputes play out across social media platforms, where follower counts and digital connections often become proxies for relationship status.
Further developments are expected as both parties navigate the fallout from Friday’s confrontation.
